(1966) "The Lord of the Androids"
Andro-Beta is under attack by swarms of planet-destroying energy spheres. Last episode, the Terrans identified planet Modul as the command center for the attacks; in this one they meet Modul's commander Baar Lun, who is a tool of the Masters of the Island but a very reluctant one, and might become a Terran ally if only he can be reached ....
No surprises here, but it delivers the action and peril you expect.
Bookwomble I was intrigued to see how many issues of Perry Rhodan there are, as when I was a kid there seemed too many for me to commit to. Wikipedia says that over 30 were translated into English, which I felt justified my caution, and then I saw that there are 3000 in the original German! 😱 That should keep you going for a while 😄📚📚📚📚📚 3mo
swynn @Bookwomble Yes, there's a lot. It claims to be the world's largest SF series, and I can't think of many competitors. Besides the main series, there are tie-in novels (about 450), spin-off series (Atlan ran for over 800 episodes), and a reboot series. I once did a back-of-the envelope calculation of the total pages in the series, and came up with about 750,000, with about 1,000 new pages added every month. She to say, I will never finish. 😀 3mo
