The first novel, "Slaves to the Metal Horde," is another engaging science fiction thriller from Milton Lesser. A terrible war and a great plague had all but destroyed civilization. This left many of the surviving humans as slaves to an army of robots. The same metal creatures they had once been masters to. Would mankind ever be able to regain its supremacy? The second novel, "Hunters Out of Time," is a great sci-fi fantasy by Joseph E. Kelleam. Catapulted into caverns deep within the Earth, Dr. Jack Odin has an adventure equal to his newly acquired title "Nors-King."
