Which somehow reminds me of Judith Seaman. Get-Avon fans, these zines are for you. She is an extraordinarily good writer, possibly (IMO, of course) the best stylist in fandom, and very science- fictional; she rather reminds me of C. J. Cherryh. Her Avons suffer exquisitely. Her Blakes, it must be said, are generally dreadful; but then one can't have everything.
I've arranged the zines in order of publication. Everything from Program #1 on is still available, either from the author or from the Avon club.
The series begun in =The Way Back= #1 was continued by the author in the form of small standalones after #2 failed to materialize; but she then seems to have lost interest in it and to have started on Program instead.
There are supposed to be two more parts to Ghost, concluding the 13-episode series. There is then supposed to be a sequel, Combat, also 13 episodes.
I know it's been a long time since we had more of these stories, but if Phoenix can be resurrected, then I have hopes on this front too.
