I didn't realize these were published books. I found them online for my Palm

| After seeing the books, I have to admit the graphics of the ships did lack some of the elegance I expected, but oh well... :) On Basilisk Station is the first book of the series, and it continues as follows: The Honor of the Queen The Short (...) (23 years ago, 26-Nov-01, to lugnet.space)
