#1. The Free Lunch
Under the facade of the world’s finest theme park lies a secret which could alter the course of human history.
Mike and Annie, refugees from the world outside, find a home underground, behind the scenes of Dreamworld, a theme park where hope exists as it does nowhere else. But Dreamworld is threatened by a jealous competitor who kills what he can’t have. And if this were not trouble enough, Mike and Annie discover that each day there are more of the trolls who maintain Dreamworld then there were the day before. As the trolls continue to multiply, Mike and Annie must discover why….or it could mean the end of Dreamworld–and the real world.
Knotted in conflict and turmoil, what was a wonderful, carefree place becomes a battleground on which the fate of Earth’s future is at stake. And only Mike and Annie, two unconventional heroes, can save it.
#2. Telempath
Spider’s 1976 first novel, in its umpteenth reincarnation.
Isham Stone is the second-best assassin left in a shattered world. He’s many miles from home, half-dead, his left arm is gangrenous, and he possesses–like everyone else–a sense of smell 1000 times better than a wolf’s. Ahead of him, in the stinking ruins of New York, hides Carlson, the greatest killer of all time. All Isham has to do is stay alive long enough to find Carlson and kill him. But Carlson is guarded by ghosts. They rode the winds when Earth was bubbling rock, shared the world with men for a million years, and though we sensed their presence we never truly believed in them–for in our arrogance we assumed life was an exclusive property of solids and liquids… Now they’ve declared war on us, and our species is nearly annihilated…thanks to the man Isham has come to kill.
The first third of this book, as "By Any Other Name," won the Hugo Award for Best Novella, the first of Spider’s 3 Hugos.
#3. Night of Power
The place: a future New York City torn by racial tension and ripe for rebellion. The revolutionaries have high technology and careful planning on their side, their soldiers are well trained and sworn to secrecy, and their plans are unsuspected . . . until the Night of Power. Caught in the middle of the insurrection are Russell and Dena Grant and their daughter Jennifer, a 13-year-old whose genius-level intelligence saves her lifer more than once after insurrection breaks out. As an interracial couple, the Grants face the problems every couple does-but the Night of Power becomes the ultimate test, of their loyalty to each other and to their separate races.
