Six time Hugo winner Ben Bova's most sought-after and possibly best novel, THE STAR CONQUERORS, has been long out of print. There was only one small hardback print run of his first novel, never reprinted, and used copies are rare, costing upwards of $500. Until now! ReAnimus Press is pleased to announce the ebook publication of THE STAR CONQUERORS! To Explore New Worlds... and Resistance is Futile... all found their home here first with Star Watch Captain Geoffrey Knowland in what some say is a virtual blueprint for Star Trek. (Note that this edition is what the publisher calls the "Standard Edition" to avoid confusion with the special collector's edition also available from the publisher. The standard edition contains the complete story, unabridged, perfect for reading the story, but does not include some additional materials only of interest to collectors that is found in the collector's edition.) THE STAR CONQUERORS is a great story, far too long out of print. Resistance IS futile, so get your copy today!

Modern mankind has spread throughout the stars and must join together to fight ancient enemies in STAR WATCHMAN. Set in the same universe as STAR CONQUERORS and THE DUELING MACHINE this follows the evolution of the Star Watch: Humans rule a giant galactic empire, but not all the worlds are pleased. Can the Star Watch prevent a revolt? ABOUT THE AUTHOR Dr. Ben Bova is a six-time Hugo Award winner, and author of over 125 futuristic novels and nonfiction books about science and technology.

Dueling as a means of settling disputes has been revived by the invention of the dueling machine, which allows two adversaries to have at each other in the imaginary world of their choosing, with no danger to either other than humiliation and the loss of the point in dispute—until the Kerak Worlds found a way to kill with the machine. Unless a young Star Watchman can solve the mystery, the warlike Kerak Worlds will gobble up the planets of the Acquataine Cluster, murdering its leaders one at a time, and then be ready for the Terrans themselves... Originally a short piece published as "The Dueling Machine" [with Myron R. Lewis] Analog May 1963; also as "The Perfect Warrior".
