Terro-Human Future Series aka The Federation Sequence by H. Beam Piper #1-3, #5
Requirements: ePUB reader, 2.0Mb
Overview: Much of his later work fits very loosely into a fairly standard Future History that has become retroactively known as the Terro-Human Future History, in which, after World War Three, a Terran Federation has been formed only to end in interregnum and diaspora, a time of troubles succeeded by various Galactic Empires. At his death, large gaps remained in the sequence, though its congenial looseness would have been resistant to closure. Two series can be read under the overall rubric. The Federation sequence – some tales set during the first Federation, some during the interregnum, a few later – includes Uller Uprising (as "Ullr Uprising" in The Petrified Planet, coll 1953, ed anon Fletcher Pratt; 1983), Four-Day Planet (1961), Junkyard Planet (February 1958 Galaxy as "Graveyard of Dreams"; exp 1963; vt The Cosmic Computer 1964), Space Viking (November 1962-June 1963 Analog; 1963) and two posthumous collections, Federation (coll 1981) and Empire (coll 1981)… Though his series clearly resembles Isaac Asimov’s Foundation sequence, Piper applies no more than a generalized Libertarian SF instinct to otherwise straightforward Space Operas.

Terro-Human Future 01 Uller Uprising
The story of a confrontation between a human overlord and alien servants, with an ironic twist at the end. Like most of Piper’s best work, Uller Uprising is modeled after an actual event in human history; in this case the Sepoy Mutiny — though not a mere retelling of the Indian Mutiny, but rather an analysis of an historical event applied to a similar situation in the far future.
Terro-Human Future 02 Four-Day Planet
Fenris isn’t a hell planet, but it’s nobody’s bargain. With 2,000-hour days and an 8,000-hour year, it alternates blazing heat with killing cold. A planet like that tends to breed a special kind of person: tough enough to stay alive and smart enough to make the best of it. When that kind of person discovers he’s being cheated of wealth he’s risked his life for, that kind of planet is ripe for revolution.
Terro-Human Future 03 Junkyard Planet(1963) aka The Cosmic Computer
This novel had its genesis in a much shorter story called "Graveyard of Dreams" (Galaxy, 1958) Piper expanded it to book length, and it appeared in 1963 as Junkyard Planet. Ace later renamed the book The Cosmic Computer for its paperback appearance. This edition returns the book to Piper’s original title, Junkyard Planet. Conn Maxwell returns from Terra to his home world of Poictesme, dubbed "The Junkyard Planet" because of all the military equipment left behind after the last war. Conn claims he has found the location of Merlin, a military super-computer rumored to have been left behind. But is Merlin real, or just a myth? And will Conn’s knowledge of the computer save Poictesme — or tear his world apart?
