A small band of travelers seeks to prevent a tyrant from finding the various pieces of a gate that, when fully assembled, will give him enormous power.

The evil Dark Baron has escaped and joined forces in the far North with the Master of the Dead to theaten all of Husaquahr with enslavement. Only Joe can stop them—but Joe is no longer quite himself. In fact, he’s not sure who he is!

Wer war Nathan Brazil — und was machte er in der Sechseck-Welt?

Gebaut von den Markoviern, einer ausgestorbenen Rasse, wurden in der Sechseck-Welt Lebewesen aller Art in andere Lebewesen verwandelt. Und auch Raumschiffkapitän Brazil erlebte eine Metamorphose, schrecklicher und verheißungsvoller als alle anderen. Doch ihm gelang es, bis ins Zentrum des bizzaren Planeten vorzudringen – der Quelle all dessen, was je gelebt hat …

The rift in the fabric of space was fast approaching the Well World, and time was running out. Troops all over the planet were gathering for the final battle.

Nathan Brazil and Mavra Chang somehow had to reach the Well of Souls in time to save the universe and before any of the hostile natives managed to kill them.

At best, a difficult mission. At worst, impossible—especially since there was a price on Brazil’s head and many would-be claimants! For Brazil, the difficult was but the work of a moment—the impossible would take a little longer!

Elf bittere Jahre lang war Mavra Chang eine Gefangene der Sechseck-Welt, wo Hunderte verschiedener und unvorstellbarer Rassen existierten, jede in ihrer eigenen, unvorstellbaren Umwelt. Ihre einst menschlichen Begleiter waren längst in fremde Wesen verwandelt. Und auch Mavras Körper war eine monströse, sinnlose Travestie ihrer einstigen Schönheit! Über ihr kreiste Obie, der Planetoid des Supercomputers, der ihr Körper und Willenskraft zurückgeben konnte. Doch das Raumschiff, das allein ihr die Rückkehr zu Obie ermöglicht, scheint für sie unerreichbar.

Dennoch ist Mavra noch nicht bereit, sich dem Schicksal zu ergeben …

Antor Trellig, head of a ruthless interstellar syndicate, had seized a super computer with godlike powers, which could make him omnipotent. The Council offered master criminal Mavra Chang any reward if she stopped Trellig—and horrible, lingering death if she failed. But neither Trellig nor Mavra had taken the Well World into consideration. Built by the ancient Markovians, the Well World controlled the design of the cosmos. When the opponents were drawn across space to the mysterious planet, they found themselves in new alien bodies, and in the middle of a battle where strange races fought desperately, with the control of all the Universe as the prize.

Entered by a thousand unsuspected gateways—built by a race lost in the clouds of time—the planet its dwellers called the Well World turned beings of every kind into something else. There spacefarer Nathan Brazil found himself companioned by a batman, an amorous female centaur and a mermaid—all once as human as he.

Yet Nathan Brazil’s metamorphosis was more terrifying than any of those… and his memory was coming back, bringing with it the secret of the Well World.

For at the heart of the bizarre planet lay the goal of every being that had ever lived—and Nathan Brazil and his comrades were… lucky?… enough to find it!

Die Zeit arbeitet gegen Nathan Brazil und Mavra Chang. Der Riß im Raum-Kontinuum kommt der Sechseck-Welt immer näher.Sie müssen den Schacht der Seelen schnell erreichen — und bevor Kopfgeldjäger die Prämie für einen toten Nathan Brazil einstreichen können.Im besten Fall — eine schwierige Aufgabe; im schlimmsten Fall — das Ende des Universums…

This tale, a continuation of the science fantasy series by the author of the “Well World” saga, describes a world slowly recovering from a battle between titanic forces of good and evil.

Three star travelers—Ming, Ari, and Angel—become enmeshed in a vicious blood-feud between an evil genius and Jeremiah Wong Kincaid, the man who has vowed to destroy him.

The Dreel was a hive-mind, composed of trillions upon trillions of virus-sized units, which infected intelligent beings like a disease and took over the mind of an occupied being, utterly. It had occupied planets throughout the galaxy, making their entire population its mind-slaves, and was on its way to conquering the entire galaxy-until a cop on the frontier planet of Parkatin discovered the truth. Those whose minds were still free fought back, using a weapon so powerful that it wrought havoc with the control of the Well World, the ancient planet-sized supercomputer that a vanished super-race called the Markovians built to recreate the entire universe, and maintain it in its present form. If the Well World’s control of time and space could not be restored, the universe could vanish like a blown-out candle flame. Only a Markovian could go to the Well World and repair the damage, but only one Markovian was still known to survive. He had last been seen in human form, going by the name of Nathan Brazil. No one knew where he was now, what name he was using, or even if he still appeared human. Finding him, somewhere in the immensity of the galaxy, seemed an impossible task. So the task fell to someone who had done the impossible over and over: Mavra Chang, one of the few beings ever to escape from the Well World. And on that occasion, she had brought back with her a computer named Obie, who just might be the second most powerful computer in the universe, after the Well World itself. With those two on his trail, Nathan Brazil could run-but could he hide?

Nur Mavra Chang — Mitkämpferin in dem Krieg auf der Sechseck-Welt — und Obie — der Computergefährte — können jenes Wissen finden, das als einziges dazu imstande ist, die Sechseck-Welt zu erreichen und den dort entstandenen Schaden radikal auszumerzen. Doch der teuflische Nathan Brazil — Halbgott und ewiger Jude zugleich — wwill nicht gefunden werden…

Und so ist der Bestand des ganzen, von der Sechseck-Wet erzeugten und erhaltenen Universums in Gefahr!

Antor Trelings Ziel ist es, alle bewohnten Welten zu beherrschen. Als er Obie, einen Supercomputer, für sich arbeiten lässt, glaubt er sich diesem Ziel nicht mehr fern. Er rechnet freilich nicht damit, auf den Markovier-Planeten der Sechseck-Welt verschlagen zu werden, die aus tausenden hexagonaler Einzelwelten besteht. Dort beginnt der entscheidende Kampf um die Herrschaft des Universums.

For centuries, interstellar prospectors had searched for the fabled worlds of the Three Kings, the lost El Dorado of the galaxy. But none had succeeded. Only the mad cyborg Prophet, Ishmael Hand, had ever seen the mysterious system, and he had refused to reveal its location before vanishing forever into history. Then, with the help of his flock, a starfaring evangelist—Doctor Karl Woodward, preacher and leader of the starship —found it, only to disappear in turn.

Now a new group of explorers must follow the trail that Woodward blazed. A spacegoing salvage team, desperately in debt after a violent alien menace ruins a lucrative assignment and decimates the group, is hired to follow the clues Woodward left behind. But the team’s shady creditors won’t want to wait...and they won’t much care how they get their investments back.

Fearing pursuit by their former backers, the group heads off for the ultimate salvage operation. By hook or by crook, they will find the Three Kings—if the galactic underworld’s repo men don’t get them first!

Wzięli ciało Parka Lacocha, usunęli jego umysł, zastępując go umysłem najlepszego agenta Konfederacji. Następnie umieścili go na statku kosmicznym i zesłali na Charona — jeden ze Światów Rombu Wardena, z którego nie było powrotu. Tajemniczy endemiczny organizm infekował wszystko i wszystkich, uniemożliwiając życie po opuszczeniu Rombu.

Charon był piekłem w sensie dosłownym. Znajdował się bowiem zbyt blisko swego słońca, a upalny i parny klimat, który tam panował, czynił życie nieznośnym — omal niemożliwym. Przedziwne bestie zamieszkiwały jego dżungle, ale jeszcze dziwniejszą od nich była grupa znana pod imieniem Czarna Magia, która spiskowała wraz z przebywającym na wygnaniu Władcą w celu przejęcia kontroli nad planetą.

Magia i czary były tam czymś realnym — były wszechobecne na Charonie. Kontrolowany przez czarownice i czarowników organizm wardenowski potrafił dokonać każdej sztuczki, o czym przekonał się Park Lacoch przemieniony w pół człowieka, pół bestię. Dopiero wtedy jego misja stała się autentycznie trudna…

The first book in a fabulous new trilogy set in Well World—site of bestselling SF mainstay Jack Chalker's most successful series of novels. For uncounted aeons, the Well World had given order to the universe. Now, an utterly alien entity was loose—and bent on corrupting the Well World.

Somewhere, from among the four human-settled worlds of the Warden Diamond, hostile aliens were spying on Earth. But no agent could be sent to investigate and report back; a symbiont invaded all life forms and destroyed any form of machinery. That called for extraordinary means. One agent was chosen, then four men were stripped of their own minds and personalities, and his was imposed upon them. hooked up properly, he could then receive their reports, without ever leaving safe territory. Each man was assigned one world to conquer. His mission was first to find the Overlord of that world and kill him, then to take over his link with the aliens. Of course all this must be done with no help beyond his own naked ability.

An ex-detective gets mixed up in a plot to use a revolutionary supercomputer system to provide power for a magic ritual. Of course, such a thing is going to require a virgin, and in this case, the girl is a quadraplegic. However, a computer system of this power can do a lot of things—change people being one of them.

Mavra Chang had been a master criminal, notorious throughout the galaxy, but for years she has been trapped in a no-longer human body on the Well World—the Master Control planet for the universe. A supercomputer can restore her form, if only she can obtain a spaceship to reach it.

They took the body of Park Lacoch, put in it the mind of a top confederacy operator and then stuck him aboard a spaceship bound for Charon—one of the worlds of the Warden Diamond, a hell-world from which there was no return.

Cerberus is the water world of the Warden system. In its dense jungles only the most ruthless survive. If Qwin, the Federation’s finest operative is to survive and take over the mind of it’s evil lord, he must exchange his body for that of a man (right now he is a woman, but don’t ask) and do it fast!

Racing to the Well World, bitter rivals Nathan Brazil and Mavra Chang find an impossibly changed land and a price on their heads, and fear that Brazil himself has been altered in an attempt to divert history.
