This book is for a number of old pros, who, wittingly
or unwittingly, at various times have helped:

Leigh Brackett
Robert Bloch
Alfred Bester
Marty (Hicksville) Greenberg
Gordon R. Dickson
Harlan Ellison
Fritz Leiber
Harry ("Hal Clement") Stubbs
Compton ("Stephen Tall") Crook
Avram Davidson

fiction than any ten comparable writers,

Mr. Eric Frank Russell

First Sentence:

It wasn't the fact that Gilgam Zinder's lab assistant had a horse's tail that was the oddest fact; the really strange thing was that she didn't seem to think her condition odd or unusual.

Last Sentence:

May contain spoilers

I'm Mavra Chang, and I don't need anybody!

WAR
ON THE
WELL WORLD

Antor Trellig, archvillain and head of the Eponge Syndicate, had captured Obie, a supercomputer that could control all matter and all worlds. With Obie's help - willing or unwilling - Trellig would become omnipotent... and he was sure nothing could stop him now.

Against him, the Council had only one weapon - Mavra Chang, the amoral female adventurer who had trained herself to be humanity's master criminal. They offered her any reward if she succeeded. For failure, there was certain, horrible death.

Neither Trellig nor Mavra had counted on being drawn across space to the Well World, master planet of the ancient Markovians. There, in new - alien - bodies, they were faced with countless bizarre ecologies. And there they were caught up in a battle of intrigue where strange races fought for control of the Universe!

THUS BEGINS THE EPIC WAR

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.
