| The Enemy Papers
Beginning with "Enemy Mine" and The Tomorrow
Testament, and continuing with The Last Enemy, the Enemy Mine series
spans almost the entirety of my writing career to date. There
have been a lot
of changes in me and in publishing since "Enemy" first appeared in
1979, but there is a strange continuity in the
universe that saw three hundred worlds at war as Dracs and humans
worked out over the years the steps of
their deadly dance.
I am excited at presenting the entire series in one volume, this time with "Enemy Mine" greatly expanded, in addition to fragments of the Drac bible, The Talman. Incidentally, the stories of The Talman have never before been published. It is a bible by aliens set on an alien planet, about aliens and for alien readers. With The Enemy Papers, now there there is a unique choice: If you read the selections from The Talman first, you will get to read "Enemy Mine" from the perspective of a Drac; If you read "Enemy" first, you can read it from the perspective of a human. I have included the Drac vocabulary in this volume, in addition to two very different essays. "On Alien Languages" tells some of the funny business of making up alien languages in science fiction. "Run Drac Run" tells about the origins and continuation of the Enemy Mine series. This volume saw the first publication of the final novel of the trilogy, The Last Enemy. Containing The Myth of Aakva, The Story of Uhe, much of The Story of Shizumaat, and fragments from other books. Eleven thousand years of wisdom in convenient, magazine length stories. Enemy Mine, The Author's Cut With never before revealed glimpses of Drac life and the life and thoughts of Willis E. Davidge. When told "I really loved the movie Enemy Mine," this is the version the author will force you to read on the spot, most likely at gunpoint. Novel-length version of the original, award-winning novella. The Tomorrow Testament Seeing is not necessarily believing, and some rules are meant to be broken. Complete novel. The Last Enemy Where we discover that the endless, most severe threat to life and peace in the universe is the monstrous illusion of the tribe. Complete novel, first publication. On Alien Languages Why starting too soon in the writing process, and trying to keep it all in your head, can make you poorzhab! Essay. Run Drac Run The full, uncut, never before told tale of the writings of "Enemy Mine," The Tomorrow Testament, and The Last Enemy, including the making of the motion picture Enemy Mine, and how the author recovered from it all by smacking his head repeatedly on his Wang. Essay. Drac for Travelers For the very first time, the collected vocabulary from "Enemy Mine," The Tomorrow Testament and The Last Enemy. Curse out your friends in secret, call the President names without getting arrested, offend visiting aliens. |
