Anderson,Jessica The Commandant
Great Britain Macmillian No ISBN Hardcover Good Condition Fair Ian Henderson
Hardcover book in great condition has yellowed pages, Dustjacket has a large tear that has been taped. Minor tears along corners and edge of dust jacket and bumping alog top and bottom. In the 1830s, the penal settlement of Moreton Bay on the Brisbane River is under the command of Patrick Logan. His administration has been denounced by the liberal press of Sydney, but he scorns such criticism. How can it harm him when he had governed according to the rules? "Flogged and brutalised, some convicts escape to the bush and take refuge with the Aborigines. "Logan cannot continue to ignore the reaction to his harsh discipline after the arrival of his wife's younger sister, Frances. She cannot accept the brutality of chained and toiling men, punishment parades and the lash, and it is she who precipitates the crisis from which the final drama springs." Illustrator: Ian Henderson.

Asimov,Isaac I, Robot
Great Britain Voyager 1996 0586025324 / 9780586025321 Reprint Paperback Good Condition
249 pages. Lightly tanned pages. Edgewear and creasing to covers. Slight spine lean. The three laws of Robotics: 1) A robot may not injure a human being or, through inaction, allow a human being to come to harm2) A robot must obey orders givein to it by human beings except where such orders would conflict with the First Law.3) A robot must protect its own existence as long as such protection does not conflict with the First or Second Law. With these three, simple directives, Isaac Asimov changed our perception of robots forever when he formulated the laws governing their behavior. In I, Robot, Asimov chronicles the development of the robot through a series of interlinked stories: from its primitive origins in the present to its ultimate perfection in the not-so-distant future--a future in which humanity itself may be rendered obsolete. Here are stories of robots gone mad, of mind-read robots, and robots with a sense of humor. Of robot politicians, and robots who secretly run the world--all told with the dramatic blend of science fact and science fiction that has become Asmiov's trademark. Quantity Available: 1. Category: Fiction; 1001 Books You Must Read Before You Die; Literature & Literary. ISBN: 0586025324. ISBN/EAN: 9780586025321. Inventory No: 12120156. Paperback

Asimov,Isaac Second Foundation
Great Britain Grafton 0586017135 / 9780586017135 Paperback Good Condition (ex-library)
240 pages. Minimal library marks, cover has been contacted. Spine lean and last page has been re taped back into book using clear sticky tape. When the First Foundation was conquered by a force Seldon had not foreseen - the overwhelming power of a single individual, a mutant called the Mule - the second Foundation was forced to reveal its existence and, infinitely worse, a portion of its power. One man understood the shifting patterns of the inhabited cosmos. This was Hari Seldon, the last great scientist of the First Empire. The mathematics of psychohistory enabled Seldon to predict the collapse of the Empire and the onset of an era of chaos and war. To restore civilization in the shortest possible time, Seldon set up two Foundations. The First was established on Terminus in the full daylight of publicity. But the Second, "at the other end of the galaxy", took shape behind a veil of total silence. Because the Second Foundation guards the laws of psychohistory, which are valid only so long as they remain secret. So far the second Foundation's location, its most closely guarded secret of all, has been kept hidden. The Mule and the remnants of the First Foundation will do anything to discover it.
