"The Cyclan was the greatest concentration of intelligence in a thousand worlds - and yet Earl Dumarest continued to elude it. For too long. Bochner was the greatest hunter of a hundred worlds - a man more than wise to the wiles of beasts and men. And now he was on the trail of the most dangerous and most challenging quarry of his career: Earl Dumarest. While Dumarest searched for lost Terra, the Cyclan and Bochner searched for him. Of all the nightmare worlds of the universe, the hunt this time was to lead to the Quillian Sector. The Quillian Sector: the place where space goes mad!!"
"Continuing his quest to return home—the lost, legendary planet Earth—Earl Dumarest befriends a young man who claims to come from Nerth. Could this be New Earth, Dumarest wonders? Or even the original planet Earth?
And so Dumarest comes to Nerth...where he discovers that the Cyclan, his greatest enemies, are already there—along wtih more mysteries."
"An art collector seemed an unlikely prospect for information on the galactic coordinates of the forgotten planet Earth. But Earl Dumarest never overlooked any clue--and when he defended an art devotee named Sardia, he was unexpectedly rewarded by the sight of the painting she sought. For in its sky was the unmistakable features of cratered Luna, Earth's equally fabled satellite. Sardia said the painter of the picture lived on a planet called Ath--and that was significant. So to Ath they went, she to find the painter, Dumarest to find the source of the accurate lunar presentation. But Ath was not yet Earth, and between the painter and the seekers stood the ominous forces of the Cyclan and the enigmatic insurrectionists called the Ohrm."
"As guardian of the Universe's freedom from the domination by the Cyclan, Earl Dumarest is ruthlessly hunted by their agent, Cyber Broge, as he searches for the fortune necessary to finance his epic quest for the legendary, lost Terra -- the planet of his birth. Hunter and fugitive, predator and victim, Earl Dumarest lands on the planet Zakym.
Zakym is a cadaverous, twin-sunned world where the spectres of the dead daily claim the lives of the living; a decadent world that threatens to explode with the unparalleled violence of civil war and broken taboos. It's also home to the beautiful, haunted Lavinia, whose soul is claimed and condemned by a power-crazed madman.
Both Lavinia and her planet are doomed until a man appears who promises to be their saviour. Dumarest is the only person capable of challenging the terrifying menace of the Cyclan and the terrors of Zakym. But can even he triumph against such foes?"
"The Cyber Prime had a problem. The vast combination of disembodied intelligences he controlled was in trouble. There was a solution, but it remained as an equation in the mind of just one man, the wanderer Dumarest. And Dumarest hated the Cyber...
The Cyber Prime weighed the known factors of Dumarest's movements, his desperate questing efforts to find the lost Earth. An answer came up: Dumarest must arrive on the world Tynar. The Cyber mobilized to intercept him there. But the girl Eloise intercepted him first. And she was the random factor that the Cyber had not counted upon."
"More than a dozen spaceships have disappeared into hyperspace, never to return. The lost vessels include the Jason, the Starbird, and the Invincible. Everyone assumes they fell victim to some kind of mechanical failure.
The mystery deepens when the Invincible turns up drifting in space six months after it vanished. The ship's engines are undamaged, the hull intact — yet no trace remains of its crew or its two hundred passengers. Where have they gone?
Clearly something ominous has happened to the ship and the people on board.
Something in hyperspace...or somebody!"
