I needed #5, 6, and 7 to be able to finish the series. The first two had already jumped back to their normal prices, but #7 was still selling for $1.99. Thanks!

THE HELMSMAN: Director's Cut Edition (The Helmsman Saga Book 1) by Bill Baldwin

Originally published in 1983, when the novel sold thousands of copies in its first printing, The Helmsman is the starting point for Bill Baldwin's epic, eight-part militaristic space opera - The Helmsman Saga. Using actual histories of World Wars I and II as template, the novel chronicles the adventures of StarSailor and extraordinary Helmsman Wilf Brim during an epoch of discord and outright war among various star-nations within our own galaxy.

This special, "Director's Cut" Edition is heavily re-written, a la George Lucas' rewrite of the Star Wars Trilogy, to bring it more in line with later novels in the series, as well as existing "Director's Cut" Editions of Galactic Convoy, The Trophy; the five other "Director's Cut" editions to come; and the continuation novel now in the works: The Turning Tide.

The novel begins as Brim-a 21-year-old SubLieutenant in the Imperial Fleet-arrives at the Eorean Starwharves, a maintenance complex within the planet-spanning Fleet base on watery Gimmas-Haefdon. On first assignment since receiving his commission, Brim is fresh from The Helmsman's Academy, where he weathered years of torment from wealthy classmates because of his impoverished background. Heretofore, the Academy had been a "private club" for the scions of Imperial wealth; however, enormous numbers of casualties during the present war with the League of Dark Stars has called for desperate measures to expedite replacement of these losses.

Brim's first ship is I.F.S. Truculent, a "T"-class destroyer, just the right kind of starship for the young Brim to cut his teeth on-with challenges galore to rapidly make a veteran of the young Helmsman. And even though his torments continue, in part because of long-held prejudices among the wealthy, the starship is populated with a crew largely made up from races and economic classes glad to help the young man with his career in any way they can.

As one might expect, the love interest for this poor-as-a-church mouse hero is none other than one of the Empire's most beautiful, most desirable royalty: Princess Margot of the Effer'wyck star kingdom. And though nothing goes easily for Brim-including Princess Margot herself-he acquits himself with bravery, aplomb, and daring as he begins carving a future for himself in the midst of a long, complex Galactic struggle.

That's a very cheezy cover on that new edition.

Then check out the other, earlier covers. So much better, I think.

I found this in Wiki, which is total news to me:

"Several books of the original Helmsman saga, The Siege, The Defenders and The Defiance in particular, appear to reproduce (sometimes word for word, sometimes paraphrasing) large sections of a WWII autobiography titled The Big Show (written by Pierre Clostermann, published 1948, translated into English by Oliver Berthoud (copyright 1951 by Random House, first printing, Time/Life Book series: Wings of War: The Big Show). The Defenders pages 79–83 (Warner Books paperback, 1992) resemble in form, chronological order and paraphrase almost the complete chapter titled "Radar At Dawn" from The Big Show, pages 40-44."

Has anyone had a chance to check on this information?

Well, as Tom Lehrer wrote:
But plagiarize, plagiarize, plagiarize...
Only be sure always to call it please "research".

Sequaia by Cleland Smith is free until August 29 on Amazon US UK

"...a sci-fi masterwork...an utterly readable novel, not only impossible to put down but conceptually mind-blowing. Extraordinary - a visionary tour de force." - Kirkus Reviews (starred review)

"Visualizing a London in another 70 years, along with a major societal shift is one thing, making it seem 'real' is another, and that is the essence of good science fiction. And by that standard, Sequela is good sci-fi." - San Francisco Book Review

Kester Lowe is the next big thing in viral fashion. For the price of a Brinkov suit you could be wearing one of his exclusively engineered STVs. And once you put it on, almost everyone will want you...

At least, that's the plan. When Kester infects Alexis Farrell with one of his signature viruses, showing her what he is capable of first-hand, she employs him to head up her new viral design department at technopharmaceutical giant V. Farrell will stop at nothing to make Kester a star, but not everyone is a fan. Those offended by what he represents, those he has betrayed, his own suppressed ambitions and forgotten promises - Kester is racking up enemies and they are about to come together in an attempt to destroy him.
