Continues Mandella's story as he and his friend/lover return to earth after battling the Taurans to find that twenty-six years have passed and they try to cope with the future shock and alienation they experience.

The Forever War 2: Lieutenant Mandella

Otto McGavin is peacefully idealistic by nature, an Anglo-Buddhist, who seeks employment with the Confederacion because he believes in its mission to protect human & nonhuman rights. The only problem is that the Confederacion needs him as one of its twelve Prime Operators for its secret service, the TBII. The TBII wants him as a spy, thief & assassin. It's not, of course, a problem for the Confederacion, which simply uses immersion therapy & hypnotic personality overlay for Otto's training, then sends him out in deep cover, encased in plastiflesh, on a variety of dangerous missions on a number of bizarre worlds. But for him, it's a different matter: what he has to witness & what he's forced to do take a terrible toll. Always he returns to his original self--his conscience stabbed by the memory of all those he'd killed in the service of interstellar harmony.

En Mémoire De Mes Péchés

NEVER BEFORE.....Had the Enterprise been betrayed by its own technology. Never before had their systems, instruments and weapons failed to respond. And never before had Kirk, Spock, McCoy and the rest of the crew faced a total breakdown of science and sanity....until they stumbled on the mysterious world that couldn't exists....A world orbited by a black hole and ruled by chaos -- where man was a helpless plaything for a race of beings more powerful than the laws of the universe.

La planète du jugement (Star Trek #15)

Lorsque John Baird, universitaire spécialiste d'Hemingway, rencontre par hasard le faussaire Castle, une idée apparemment judicieuse leur vient à l'esprit : pourquoi ne pas recréer de toutes pièces les manuscrits de jeunesse que l'auteur du Vieil homme et la mer a perdus en 1922, avant de les publier ? Un moyen pour Baird de se payer la tête de ses collègues et néanmoins amis, gonflés de suffisance.Les deux compères dénichent une vieille Corona d'un modèle identique à la machine à écrire qu'utilisait l'écrivain. Et le projet suit son cours, jusqu'à ce que Baird soit assassiné par un être étrange doté de facultés surhumaines.Petit détail : cet inconnu est le sosie parfait d'Hemingway...

Le vieil homme et son double

THE MARS GIRL (Joe Haldeman)Carmen Dula was just like any other girl. Or she used to be, before she spent six months on the spacecraft, John Carter, as part of the first nine families to settle on Mars. Just like any other teenager she was curious about her new home-who wouldn't be?-but she did her schoolwork, enjoyed time with her friends, and she started to explore the red planet with the supervision of her guide and friend, Paul Santos; always within the rules set by the colony. Yet the Administrator, Dargo Solingen, seemed to have it out for her. She had no idea why, but she was blamed for every slight; every transgression. Until one day she had enough. At night fall, Carmen donned a biosuit and ventured outside on her own-during curfew, while her outside privileges had been suspended. She didn't have a set goal. All she knew is that she wanted to explore... What happened next was beyond her most wildest dreams. But how can she prove what she saw that night, when almost everyone assumes she is lying? ===========================================AS BIG AS THE RITZ (Gregory Benford)Clayton Donnor grew up in a hard-working mining asteroid community, so when he went to Earth to study at UCLA, he thought all his dreams had come true. Earth was gaudy, effervescent and, above all, it was fun. Majoring in Comparative Astrophysics, and Minoring in Analytic Economic Morality, Clayton's aspirations were large. But he had no idea what would be in store for him when he first met Sylvia Rolland, and she invited him home to meet her father. For Dr. Norman Rollan had created the elusive Brotherworld, a manufactured Hoop world a few kilometres thick, that circled around the Vortex of a black hole twenty kilometres away. Why did Dr. Rollan not allow any Astrophysicists to visit? What were his colony of genetically- perfect clones hiding? Clayton was determined to find out...

La guerre éternelle Imaginez une guerre si vaste que l'écho des batailles peut mettre plusieurs siècles à parvenir aux oreilles de ceux qui les ont ordonnées... enfin, de leurs descendants, en tout cas. Pour le soldat Mandella, membre de l'une des unités d'élite chargées de combattre les Taurans, le problème est inverse : lorsqu'il revient sur Terre après plusieurs mois de campagne, des décennies se sont écoulées. Comment continuer à vivre, quand tout ce pour quoi on s'est battu n'existe plus?

Dans ce futur proche, la mortalité n'est plus un problème. On ne peut pas en dire autant de l'argent. En effet, seule une poignée de privilégiés peuvent s'offrir tous les dix ans, la cure de jouvence éternelle de Julius Stileman. Même son (très) vieil ami Dallas Barr ne bénéficie d'aucun régime de faveur. Ce qui tombe mal car, en cette année 2075, il doit renouveler sa cure dans 10 jours et il vient de perdre ses derniers deniers au poker. 

Cet album rassemble en 1 volume les 7 titres de la série: «Immortalité à Vendre», «Le Choix de Maria», «Premier Quartier», «Nouvelle Lune», «Anna des mille Jours», «Sarabande», «La dernière Valse». L'ouvrage est complété de 12 pages de dessins inédits illustrant la vision de Marvano du futur de notre monde.
