Welcome to a special re-release of a Blake's Seven story...

Over the years many of us have come and gone into Blake's Seven fandom...and, over the past year, it's come to my attention that there is now a whole new set of "fans" for this very special fandom.

That's terrific news, of course, for anyone in Blake's Seven fandom, it's always fun to have someone new in the group. However, for the new fans it can be very frustrating to "find" all those old, great stories they hear about -- most of which are no longer in print! To help those new fans, or even give the "old" fans a chance to re-read an old favorite, KnightWriter Press is hoping to re-release a number of previously published stories in this fandom!

Keep in mind, all the stories in the "Re-Release" series (no matter by what author!) will have been previously published at some prior date. That's why they are coming out in Digest format so that you can pick and choose among those you have not previously read -- or those you want a copy of no matter whether you've read it or not.

At any rate... enjoy these stories, they are the author's favorites -- and so tend to be the best of the best in a fandom that created some of fandom's classic writers!

Excerpt

She took a seat in the comfortable lounge area and peered across the gap betewen the two chairs at the circumspect subject of her interview. A year ago she'd have killed for the chance to talk to this man - and it would have probably taken that to get him here. Six months ago she'd have sworn on everything holy that it'd be an impossible interview to achieve. As short a time ago as last week she'd have been willing to bet that he'd have turned her down cold if she presented him with the chance. Very cold from the reports she'd been given. Yet, here he sat.
