Vagabond of Space
Perry Rhodan
IT IS THE DAWN of a new era for Mankind. Since the adventures described in our previous diary, 57 years have elapsed. On Earth it is now 2102 A.D. and much has happened in the meantime! The Druuf danger has passed since the overlap zone between the two universes has become too unstable to permit further penetrations. Supported by Earthmen, the Arkonide Atlan has succeeded in consolidating his position as Imperator. The treaty between Arkon and the Solar Imperium has borne fruit-especially for the Terrans, many of whom have already taken over important positions on Arkon itself. Atlan has to tolerate this because he cannot rely on most of the members of his own race... VAGABOND OF SPACE!

Action Division Three
Perry Rhodan
IT IS THE DAWN of a new era for Humanity! Since the death of Khrest, 57 years have passed. It is now 2102 AD. and much had happened in the mean time: With the support of Earthmen, Atlan has succeeded in consolidating his position as Imperator. The treaty between Arkon and the Solar Imperium has borne fruit-especially for the Terrans, many of whom have already taken over important positions on Arkon itself. Atlan has to tolerate this because he cannot rely on most of the members of his own race. The Solar Imperium has become a major commercial power along the rim of the Milky Way. For the past 22 years a virtual stream of emigrants has been flowing out to colonize worlds on many of the inhabited planets Terran embassies have been established as well as interstellar trading settlements. It goes without saying, of course, that many a dangerous confrontation arises but whoever dares to challenge Terrans must always reckon with... ACTION DIVISION THREE!

The Plasma Monster
Perry Rhodan
The Solar Empire has become a major commercial power along the rim of the Milky Way. For the past 22 years a virtual stream of emigrants has been flowing out to suitable colonial worlds. Also on many of the planets inhabited by other intelligences, Terran embassies have been established as well as far-flung trading settlements. In spite of all this, however, the situation is tense. An ominous discovery has been made: there is a super power in the galaxy which is friendly neither to Arkonides nor to Terrans! These are the Akons of the so-called Blue System. This terrible race will unleash the most incredible and frightening creation humanity has ever seen...THE PLASMA MONSTER!

Horn: Green
Perry Rhodan
IN THE COURSE of the years the Earth has become a giant cargo-handling and shipping center for interstellar trade goods and the Solar Imperium has emerged as a major commercial power. However, for First Administrator Perry Rhodan and his colleagues the expansion of Terra’s commercial relations has brought up new problems. There is strong competition from the Galactic Traders who are still fighting for their old monopolies, by fair means or foul. The Springers conceive of a means of discrediting the Earth in galactic trade relationships, or of possibly eliminating Terra entirely as a competitor. Their plan involves the dissemination of Earthly alkaloids through the galaxy—that is, the spread of narcotics such as opium, which has a devastating effect on extraterrestrial organisms. In spite of intensive efforts on the part of Solar Intelligence, so far it has not been possible to eliminate the interstellar narcotics ring in which unscrupulous Terrans are also active. For Rhodan’s extraterrestrial politics this illegal operation is a very serious matter because after all, this poisonous commodity does have an Earthly origin! The situation doesn’t look very promising for humanity. An attack by the Akons has just been repulsed and it is feared that the inhabitants of the Blue System will undertake new action against the Earth. At this time of high tensions an accidental caprice of fortune comes to Perry Rhodan’s aid. The ‘accidental’ factor appears in the ungainly form of greenhorn John Edgar Pincer… HORN: GREEN!

Phantom Fleet
Perry Rhodan
"WE STILL have some hope," Perry Rhodan said."But slim at best," Atlan replied."Hope is hope!" the Peacelord declared adamantly. "Don't forget that we have always mastered the worst situations."'"But nothing as dreadful as this," the Crystal Prince muttered glumly. And Perry Rhodan knew in his heart of hearts that his immortal friend, the Imperator of Arkon who had survived from the time of Atlantis, was right. The existence of the Imperium was at stake. A tale of the Blue System, the Akons and a ghostly group of spaceships known as—THE PHANTOM FLEET

The Blue System
Perry Rhodan
OF ASSASSINS & ATLAN: ATTEMPTS on his life. Eternal intrigues. Threats to his reign. The rule of Imperator of Arkon is certainly not one of serenity. His subjects hate him! His ancestors despise him! And now, it appears, there is a new nuisance on the blue horizon: aliens intent on pitting the Realm of Arkon against the Solar Empire! Atlan must meet with Perry Rhodan to defeat this malicious plan, this systematically arranged sabotage by– THE BLUE SYSTEM!

Desert of Death's Domain
Perry Rhodan
THE ANTIS! It’s just as certain, though, that Perry Rhodan and his men–as well as Atlan–have not paid enough attention lately to the Antis because of the turbulent events of the recent past. Thus the Antis, the followers of the galaxy-wide Baalol cult, have been given an opportunity to start their 10-year-plan of horror without any outside interference. The terrifying potential that this plan is intended to have humanity and other intelligent life forms in the galaxy is perceived for the first time by the agents of Division 3 now stationed on the planet Lepso, as they are advancing into... THE DESERT OF DEATH'S DOMAIN!

Blockade: Lepso
Perry Rhodan
THOMAS CARDIF declared, "I want the Flaming Sword back, priest! With the help of Baalol, I want to wield it so mightily against the Solar Imperium that it will be turned into nothing but raving madmen!"Having been released from his synthetic personality, Cardif’s real self was revealing the heritage of his genius father. He had almost been equal to Rhodan in terms of planning and strategy. More than once he had thrown the Solar Imperium into its gravest crisis. Almost always his shrewd manipulations had served to block Rhodan’s countermeasures. Now, with frantic Arkonidean passion, he was determined to wreck the worlds of his father’s domain, clean across the solar system from molten Mercury past the great gas planets clear out to the frozen wastes of the transPlutonian planet. The machinery for Rhodan’s destruction was– THE LEPSO BLOCKADE!

Spoor of the Antis
Perry Rhodan
FEVERISH HASTE! Research Project "Liquitiv" is being pushed forward in feverish haste. For what was at first merely a mission for a few agents of Division 3, has developed into a desperate situation that has the leaders of the Solar Empire holding their frightened breaths. Terra, the colonial planets and the Arkon worlds find they have been lulled into a false sense of security by the scientists of two Imperiums who have made a disastrous error in their analyzes of the long-range effects on human and Arkonides of Liquitiv. This and more in-- Spoor of the Antis!

False Front
Perry Rhodan
TURBULENT recent events have kept Perry Rhodan and his friends so occupied that they have neglected to pay sufficient attention to the Antis-as the worshipers of the secret Baalol cult are generally known. And thus the "10 Year Plan" of the Antis, which aimed at spreading the narcotic drug Liquitiv throughout the inhabited worlds of the Galaxy, could be launched without interference. The effects of this plan had already been exposed by the results of an alarming investigation on the planet Lepso by Division 3 which had intensified further research of the Liquitiv case. What at first had occupied only a few agents of the Solar Imperium had become a major government operation since the situation on Terra and its colonial planets, as well as Arkon, had become desperate. The necessary precautions had been disregarded for years after renowned research scientists had come to the conclusion that the new liqueur Liquitiv was extremely potent in delaying the natural aging process of the human organism and providing new vigor to those imbibing it. The disastrous error had already been revealed-but this alone did not improve the situation which had to be normalized by radical steps as Perry Rhodan realized--FALSE FRONT!

The Man With Two Faces
Perry Rhodan
"BIG WORDS, Rhobal!" Cardif retorted. Rhodan's son rose to his feet and shoved the Anti aside. Stepping over to the ball of energy he seized the sphere and raised it above his head. "Go ahead-all of you! Feast your eyes on these cell activators which can give the gift of eternal life! 20 of them, waiting here for you... but you will never have them unless I give the mental order, of my own free will, for the sphere to open. They lie behind a barrier to our time, gentlemen. Do you understand that? They are enclosed by a time field and that field will remain closed unless I feel like having it open up. Well, Rhobal, do you still dare antagonize me with your threats?"Negotiations might have begun but at that moment a loud announcement came over the speaker: "Rhobal, a ship from the Solar Fleet is approaching!"More than two dozen Antis stiffened in sudden alarm and consternation. And the man who had usurped Perry Rhodan's position in the Sol System cursed inwardly. You'll read the rest in-- THE MAN WITH TWO FACES!

Wonderflower of Utik
Perry Rhodan
THOMAS CARDIF, the renegade, has taken Perry Rhodan's place as Administrator of the Solar Imperium and nobody-neither Perry Rhodan's closest friends nor the mutants-suspects that a doppelganger is at the helm. Although Cardif's behaviour does not live up to the standards expected of Perry Rhodan, his strange conduct is presumably explained by the shock Rhodan's mental health has suffered when he was captured by the Antis. Thus Cardif the usurper feels triumphant that nobody has seen through him and feels he can rule to his heart's content. The question remains, however, how long can he keep it up, because the Antis, Cardif's supporters and accomplices, can unmask the false Administrator any time. Moreover, IT, the non-corporeal being from the planet Wanderer, has seen through his shameful game and started the counteraction of which the first phase is the-- Wonderflower of Utik!

Caller from Eternity
Perry Rhodan
THOMAS CARDIF the renegade has taken over Perry Rhodan's place as Administrator of the Solar Imperium and nobody suspects that an impostor is at the helm-not even Rhodan's closest friends or the mutants. When Cardif's actions differ strangely from those which would have normally been expected of Rhodan, an excuse for the Administrator's behavior is found in the fact that his mental health has suffered greatly as a result of his imprisonment by the Antis. Knowing that no one has seen through his disguise, Thomas Cardif triumphantly wields his power at will-even though his actions may bring the races of the Milky Way to the brink of destruction. However, the usurper has failed to include one factor in his plans: the mental being on Wanderer who is famed for a macabre sense of humor! But at least It is fair, having come forth with an unmistakable warning as the-- Caller From Eternity!

The Emperor and the Monster
Perry Rhodan
ATLAN knew it would be senseless to take command of the 10,000 robotships which were presently under control of their separate positronicons. Even on the flagship itself he had left the navigation to the auto-pilot system. Atlan, the ancient but ever-youthful Admiral, did not intend to attack without warning. The fleet was an ultimate threat and RHODAN would understand it as such. Soon the Moment of Truth would come for-- The Emperor And The Monster!

Now he wants to find Trakarat and attack it.""The survival of the Solar Empire is threatened. War is imminent. We must have the full cooperation of the Baalol scientists.""For Perry Rhodan is the Earth!"This crisis leads to a-- Duel Under The Double Sun!

Sgt Robot
Perry Rhodan
Sgt. Emery was leaning back in his seat, holding his automatic rifle in his hands. "Then the Antis would have a couple hundred more bogeys they could detect," he replied. "I think the Chief is planning a surprise attack. The Ironduke can't be traced by any hypersensor as long as it's moving in the libration zone."Emery could see at a glance that Henderson's confidence wasn't much to go on. His superior officer appeared to be nervous and unsure of himself. But Emery had known Henderson long enough to realize that this seeming insecurity always vanished in battle. Then he would strangely change into the leading figure of his unit. His orders and decisions were then calm and well calculated--SGT ROBOT!

Seeds of Ruin
Perry Rhodan
"You are right, Colonel," Rhodan agreed. "Never give up hope without considering all alternatives. Our people have seized enough Liquitiv on Lepso to supply the whole Earth for many days. We have not yet reached a crisis. Will you please instruct the Commander of occupied Lepso to ship his entire available stock of Liquitiv to Earth for disposition by the Cosmic Company. The distribution should be supervised by the Security Service. Each addict is to receive only the necessary dose and free of cost. Shady street dealers will be punished by heavy fines. Please put this call through at once!""That damn stuff!" Bell muttered. "I'm glad I never touch sweet goo like that or I would have been hooked on it too.""Many of our best friends have been trapped by it," Rhodan commented, "because nobody could have suspected that the harmless-looking liqueur would turn out to be a most dangerous drug--"THE SEEDS OF RUIN!

Planet Mechanica
Perry Rhodan
It was not a planet in the normal sense. It was actually a vast disc, 600 kilometers wide, above which the bell-shaped defense screen arched invisibly. The extensive disc below them contained every aspect of beauty that was to be found in the cosmos. Brazo Alkher and Stant Nolinov would have preferred to look at this miracle for hours on end but they were under the Chief's orders to fly toward a circular clearing, two km wide, on the edge of which stood a slender, fragile-looking spire that towered more than 2,300 meters into the artificial blue sky of-- PLANET MECHANICA!

Heritage of the Lizard People
Perry Rhodan
"To the Temple of Truth!" he shouted in sheer panic.The automatic pilot, a small positronic box with a microphone on the instrument panel, responded to his instructions. The car began to hum and with a sigh of relief Kalal saw the flat smooth ground of the spaceport recede beneath him. The raving crowd was left behind.He had managed to escape the nightmare at the last moment but had trouble feeling very happy about it. Although he was relieved for the moment, his fear returned unabated. What had happened?THE HERITAGE OF THE LIZARD PEOPLE!

Death's Demand
Perry Rhodan
Thekus was not a man who would disavow his intentions. The stranger sounded as though he were well-informed. So now there wasn't much purpose in attempting any evasion. "You are the traitor," Thekus replied calmly. "You and the men behind you. I only want the best for the Empire."He sensed that his words were spoken almost virtually into a void. He would not be able to convince the man behind that sharp borderline of shadow. He had come here with a fixed purpose in mind and he would no doubt carry it out. No more words were spoken. Admiral Thekus waited. He had often tried to imagine how he would feel when this moment came. He had no fear. Actually it was a tremendously simple matter of-- DEATH'S DEMAND!

It was the most difficult decision Perry Rhodan had ever been forced to make--"Gentlemen, after due deliberation I find it necessary to declare a state of emergency and to place the Solar Imperium under a full military alert." Every one of his highest-ranking officers had to agree with his decision, even though they would soon have to face the most powerful force in the galaxy--the Regent. Each man knew what the end result would be … the destruction of Earth!PSYCHO-DUEL

Savior Of The Empire
Perry Rhodan
There were thousands of robot spaceships on the landing field but they had become inactive. Beneath us the ground was still rumbling. The "Insanity Circuit" must have reached out to all sectors of the Regent at once. It meant the total inactivation of the robot fleet as well as the remote-controlled defence fortresses, automated industries and supplies and everything else. At the moment the Imperium had become a scrap heap without the slightest ability to defend itself! This and more in the stirring story--Savior Of The Empire!

The Shadows Attack
Perry Rhodan
The control room of the Gazelle was on top of the disc-shaped hull. Its "roof" was transparent. Germa could clearly observe the 11 robotships. He approached them slowly with his right hand next to the flight lever which he only needed to shove forward in order to hurtle away at tremendous speed. Actually the assumption that aliens could have boarded the ships in the meantime was purely absurd because if that had happened the aliens wouldn't be waiting around until somebody discovered them. Of course it was also possible that such strangers might not be able to operate the robot controls and this could explain why they were waiting--- The Shadows Attack!
