Ally DaviesParticipant
I loved Shepherd Moon and now Born for Adversity is out……..just been and ordered it…..
Thanks so much…..what a year this is turning out to be !!!! :silly:
Ally DaviesParticipantI think so…I heard about it last week from a sp1999 friend in Canada. She sent me the link. I went to http://www.telos.co.uk and ordered it on Friday.
Ally DaviesParticipantSurely there can only be one answer to that question…
YES !!
I thought Shepherd Moon was brilliant and I can’t wait for the next one.

Ally DaviesParticipantI agree Simon, lulu.com seem to have done a wonderful job. The book looks great – really stunning artwork.
I’ve read the first story – The Touch of Venus – and what can I say…it was brilliant !!
Although I’m itching to go on and read the rest I’m trying to show a little self control… :unsure: …and wait until later this evening. Then I can settle down with a glass of wine and enjoy the book with no interruptions 🙂
Ally
Ally DaviesParticipantMine’s on its way too…YAY… :cheer:
Ally DaviesParticipantDavid
When I ordered my copy I didn’t use a credit card – I took the paypal option. Ok…not very ‘Bourne Identity’ I know…BUT never had a problem with paypal – pretty secure I think!
Just had an email from Lulu to say my book has been shipped…YAY !
Procyonstar 🙂
Ally DaviesParticipantOh I so agree :cheer: …Victor, Paul, Kano…and Helena, still refined yet more involved with John…not silly and ‘over the top’ as in year Two BUT with a relationship fitting to their positions…
What a difference it would have made to have had Year Two take up after Arkadia and watch the characters we’d come to love develop and adapt to their new life.
Year Two was such a shock!
Ally DaviesParticipantYear One will always be mine. The opening credits, the music, the storylines, Main Mission – I love everything about it
Even now I can’t watch an episode without getting the same feeling of excitement I got all those years ago when I watched it for the first time.I know it was science fiction but it was somehow so very atmospheric. Whatever the reason for this, be it set, costumes, storylines, it worked to combine together to make it appear real and I loved it. Ordinary people forced into extraordinary circumstance doing the best they could.
This is where Year Two went wrong for me. It all became a bit, dare I say, ‘childish’. Too lighthearted. There was too much skipping around silly rubber monsters for it to compare to Year One.
If only they’d kept eveything about Year One and added in Maya and Tony and a bit more John/Helena interaction it would have been perfection as far as I’m concerned.
But it doesn’t really matter if it’s Year One or Two. I’m just glad we’re all still talking about it today!!
Space 1999 forever that’s what I say!
Ally DaviesParticipantI go to to London for the weekend…I’m away for less than 48 hrs and look what happens…I miss it !! :S
Never mind…just ordered my copy…so the wait is nearly over. Just need to clear my schedule for a day next week now so that when it arrives I can devote myself to it without interupption…hahaha !
Ally DaviesParticipantHi Mateo…see…told you I’d be checking in again in an hour…
Thanks for the news…so exciting…and Maya ( ok Catherine Schell ) writing a foreward…cooler than cool as far as I’m concerned. Well actually to tell you th truth…if you got Helena (BB) to write the forward I think I might actually ‘die’ from excitement. But then I wouldn’t be around to read the book…so maybe you should stick with Maya!!
Check back in the morning…Ally 🙂
Ally DaviesParticipantOMG…this is so exciting…I keep checking in every hour or so…in case I miss anything.
Decided to re-read everything starting from Breakaway to help the time pass…please, please make it soon…I just read on another thread, that it’s like being a child again and waiting for Santa Claus…that is so true !!!! 😆
Ally DaviesParticipantThat’s a great story………and I’m so glad you followed your dream and made it happen……..I thnk I have a major Space 1999 addiction…..which needs constant ‘fixes’ to keep it under control…….lol
Ally DaviesParticipantHad a pretty awful week ……so you’ve just cheered me up !!! 🙂 Will there be a link to buy the books from here?
Think I’ll spend the weekend re-reading earlier books in preperation for new ones…..
Ally DaviesParticipantHi guys……..
I’ve got every Space 1999 book I can lay my hands on and read everythying I can find on the web…….love anything Space 1999 related.
I can’t wait for the new books.
Space 1999 has to be ‘kept alive’ and I so appreciate everything you’re doing to achieve this!
