the cast of characters

Life Was Not Meant to Be Easy was one the novels published by Nikki White in her Multiverse universe. It has 138 pages.

It was a series set in an original universe which used some of the characters from Star Trek and Star Wars as well as an original race, the Ensovaari. See the Multiverse zine series for more info.

In March 1980, the author wrote:

After MV3, I hope to bring out the novella which, follows next in the 'Chronicles' after what will appear in MV3. This is tentatively called 'Incident on Ardnor' and is already written. It focuses on Vader and Solo and should be out June/July, probably 100 pages or so long. Then I might bring out another novella, 'Life was not meant to be easy' which is also in the series - or rather forms a subset all of its own. 'Dracula' is its protagonist. Then around September, I want to do MV4. This schedule is only tentative, of course. [1]
