THE MINIONS SERIES

Mark Nevins entered the hospital one morning for routine surgery and awoke six thousand years later. It was a world reverted to barbarism and savagery, filled with cannibals and pseudo-Vikings and the very beautiful but quite stoic Nona Barr. Mark hadn’t planned to save the world, but that’s what he found himself doing, in the company of a meddling super-being that called itself Omega, the last survivor of an ancient Lunar culture. All Mark had to do was defeat the two evil Russian brains-in the jar who couldn’t be killed. And that was only Mark’s first adventure in the future. Lost Treasures from the Pulps is pleased to republish for the first time in fifty years, the classic humorous SF adventure, Minions of the Moon, along with the novel’s three sequels, never before printed in book form. Join Mark, Nona and Omega in their fabulous adventures with the Minions of the Moon, Minions of Mars, Minions of Mercury, and Minions of the Shadow.
