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
The first thing Dayna noticed when she entered the room was that Avon was an untidy sleeper.Under the circumstances it was a ludicrous thing to observe, but it was so unlike the picture of Kerr Avon that she'd been forming in her mind that it stopped her cold. She stood there, calmly analyzing the way his limbs were knotted into the sheets, the fine-muscle twitching that still troubled him, and, more over, the frown marring the marbled-perfection of his face.
Had he somehow sensed her entrance into his room and was troubled by it even in his sleep? Or did he always frown so, twitching into some nightmare that he had never spoken of - never shared? That seemed unfair. Avon's life was so difficult now that she wondered - often and to herself - how he made it through each day. To have to take that tension to bed with him was unbearably cruel.
"Avon?"
He jerked up at the sound of his name, instantly awake, an instinct trained, no doubt, by the rigors of his life. He came up in bed, still tangled in the sheets, and then, seeing who it was, he collapsed back with a muted groan.
"I'm sorry to disturb you like this," Dayna continued, uncomfortable both with the subject that she was going to have to broach, and with being here in his room. "But I just received a vis-communication's burst on open channel, and well..." She paused, stammering to a halt. "Avon, I think you'd better come, right now."
