Planets of Peril

Space 1999: Year 2: Book 1

Michael Butterworth

Having passed through a space warp, the Breakaway Moon is plunged ever deeper into the unknown, distantly removed in time and space from its home planet Earth. With their life support system in danger, Moon Base Alpha personnel mount a desperate search for Tiranium, the precious mineral essential to their survival.

Their search takes them to the planet Psychon where they fall into the ruthless hands of its despotic ruler, Mentor. Then at last release comes from an unexpected quarter - Mentor's beautiful and rebellious daughter, Maya. Her phenomenal grasp of mental arithmetic and her ability to change shape at will make her a valuable addition to the Alphan team. And on their return to Moon Base Alpha, she soon encounters the first of the constant hazards that threaten Alphan life.

The Psychomorph

Continuing its journey through space, the Moon Base enters an unknown area of invisible radiation, transforming the Alpha personnel into super psychics capable of fulfilling their every wish merely by thought. Koenig decides to investigate the roots of this potentially dangerous situation - but with disastrous results.

While he recovers from his mind-shattering experience, the Moon receives some unexpected and welcome visitors. Aboard what seems to be a Superswift from Earth are longlost friends and relations who the Alphans believed they would never live to see again. But only Koenig sees the truth - the visitation is nothing but a mass hallucination disguising the terrifying invasion of jelly-like aliens - and somehow he must find a way to alert the others before it is too late.

The impossible happens! The Alphans receive a message from Earth.

And the warriors they meet intend to kill them. Can they get back to Alpha or ahead to the Twenty-First Century? Where in time and space can they find a safe haven?
