The earliest known piece of literature, GILGAMESH, is an epic saga of life, death, love, and betrayal, all set against the landscapes of the ancient world.

Accompanied by thirty full colour illustrations, it features a new text that supplements the epic with additional stories that take you deeper into the story than ever before.

"Les citaines" (The Cityboys) are those urban gay men who would be lost without a skyline in view - and this, the first collection of Sean Martin's long running series, lets you into their world. At first glance, it's a simple one: dinner gets burned, music is rehearsed, a kiss is shared... but in each case, there is always a bit more lurking in the shadowy details. What is that story, you ask? That, dear reader, is what you bring to the table, which guarantees that LES CITAINS is a book you will return to again and again, to find new adventures in the minutae of urban gay life...

The "juvenile operetta" was a theatrical artform that blossomed from 1900 to 1950, and in this overview, we examine over 100 examples in all their weird and wonderful glory.

CHIP. If I may, Captain. Starting with the Treaty of 4612, the Asu bound several worlds to an international coalition that would see the Asu in a position to leverage the upside return of ferrous substrates as described in such treaties, in effect putting the Asu in a position of coalescing economic variance factors into a single marketable stream, while at the same time imposing trade embargoes on world systems that failed to buy into such agreements. This, coupled with their well-documented usage percentages, as well as the ongoing treaty discussions of the DRATL in the Rovenoe System, has led to the Asu's re-positioning themselves at the top of the economic (and quite possibly governmental) hierarchy while at the same time maintaining a firm and well entrenched grasp on much needed commodities. A rather remarkable system, I must say. SKIP "(his eyes dazed)" Huh? JOE. Get to it, Chip: what do they want? CHIP "(as though it's perfectly obvious)" Iron. JOE "(with a snort)"Right. SKIP. As if, Robotguy. Iron is probably the most available element out there next to hydrogen. "(with a snicker)" You might as well say they want oil or something.

VOICE (a distant rumble) I'M LISTENING. YOU HAVE ONE MINUTE. DORE. We need help. I'm trying to get back to Kansas - VOICE. AH... EXOTIC PORTS OF CALL. THOSE ARE ALWAYS GOOD.

I GATHER KANSAS IS THE STICKS. DORE "(shrugs in reply)" Folks seem to think so.
