  Intruders on the home planet 
  The crew of the Sirocco has made it back to Concordia—only to find the Scythians got there before them. 
  Their planet has been invaded, the human population has been enslaved, and the fight for freedom seems hopeless. 
  But that doesn’t stop the Concordians from trying. 
  They must engineer an uprising, a rebellion so vicious it forces the aliens to reconsider their plans. Yet even if the rebels succeed, both sides may be condemned to an endless cycle of reprisals. 
  Reprisal is the ninth and final book in the epic space colonization adventure, Space Colony One. Complete series.

  "Between the phantasms of nightmare and the realities of the objective world, a monstrous and unthinkable relationship was crystallising…"
  
  A brilliant college student rents the attic room in an old house known as the Witch House because of the strange lights seen within it at night. As his studies spiral into feverish obsession, bizarre dreams, strange night-time noises and terrifying nightmares become waking visions that threaten not only his sanity, but the very fabric of human existence.
  
  Though virtually unknown and financially unsuccessful during his lifetime, H.P. Lovecraft (1890-1937) is now regarded as one of the most influential 20th-century writers of supernatural horror fiction. Widely credited with inventing the "cosmic horror" genre—fiction that explores humanity's insignificance in the face of vast, unknowable cosmic forces—he also created the "Cthulhu Mythos", a shared universe of ancient alien beings and forbidden knowledge that has influenced generations of horror and science fiction writers.

  With their beloved parents long passed away, the beautiful Angela Brooke and her brother Trevor are penniless and the upkeep of the dilapidated family Priory is all but impossible to manage. Then one day Trevor returns from London with an exciting plan, a chance for Angela to earn the princely sum of one thousand pounds, which is more than enough to solve their financial problems just by playing ‘make-believe’ for a very short time. The legendary George Edwardes, the impresario behind the famous and glamorous Gaiety Girls and the shows at London’s Gaiety Theatre has promised that the Gaiety Girls will appear in an exclusive show at the Marquis of Vauxhall’s own private theatre. The trouble is that the star of his play based on The Rake’s Progress, which the Marquis himself has written to entertain his guests, has been taken ill and, afraid to disappoint the Marquis, George Edwardes is desperate for another angelic beauty to take her place. Who better, Trevor argues, than Angela, who was so named for her angelic appearance.And so, with great trepidation, Angela arrives at the stately home of the handsome and haughty Marquis where, uncharacteristically made up to look like a wanton Gaiety Girl, she attracts the unwanted attention of the Marquis’s gentlemen-friends. But soon her angelic beauty, her excellent equestrian skills and her gentleness with his young daughter pique the curiosity of her host. And soon he is utterly smitten.
