The idea was as intriguing to us as to him and we gave him the okay to go ahead with both novels. So we are pleased to present this unique package—two novels, quite different, by the same author and based on the same basic premise. So if you note No Time for Heroes as having certain things in common with Alice's World, it's not a coincidence. Rather, we hope, it makes for a double treat.
No Time for Heroes, 131pp. / Alice's World, 122pp.
No Time For Heroes
“There’s no time for heroes like the present,” said General Superhawk, as he was relieved from his laundry duties to head the spaceship’s invasion of the untouched-by-human-hands-or-feet planet, which had been dead for 200,000 years.
“This is absolutely no time for heroes” said the planet’s central brain computer which had, in its long, long loneliness, peopled its planet with fabled literary creatures created from its monstrous protoplasma vats.
“I’m no hero!” screamed the small, fat man with the moustache as he was bullied onto the planet as the ship’s Number One scout.
