MORE
THAN JUST
HUMANITY
WAS AT STAKE

The eerie battle that soldier of fortune, Eric Nelson, waged in the name of humanity was unlike any he had fought before.

Deep in the hidden Valley of Creation, Nelson fought valiantly and successfully against weapons that included centuries-old magic and superstition. But then a day arrived when Nelson faced the acid test: he learned that more than just humanity was at stake... and he discovered the devastating alien secret that lay buried in the Cavern of Creation!

An outstanding fantasy-adventure story from one of America's most prolific science fiction writers.

I try to maintain page numbers for audiobooks even though obviously there aren't any. I do this to keep track of pages read and I try to use the Kindle version page numbers for this.
Synopses marked with an asterisk (*) were generated by an AI. There aren't a lot since this is an iffy way to do it - AI seems to make stuff up.
When specific publication dates are unknown (ie prefixed with a "Cir"), I try to get the publication date that is closest to the specific printing that I can.
When listing chapters, I only list chapters relevant to the story. I will usually leave off Author Notes, Indices, Acknowledgements, etc unless they are relevant to the story or the book is non-fiction.
Page numbers on this site are for the end of the main story. I normally do not include appendices, extra material, and other miscellaneous stuff at the end of the book in the page count.
