About the Derek Calver Adventures Series

The Derek Calver Adventures series by A. Bertram Chandler takes you on a journey beyond the edge of space, into the unknown and deadly Outside. At the heart of the story is Derek Calver — a fearless space explorer who won’t be held back by fear or old myths. Long ago Commander William Maudsley was the only man to survive an encounter with the Outsiders. His ship was destroyed, his crew dead, and he returned a broken man who wouldn’t speak of what he saw. But Calver is different. He wants to push beyond human exploration, even if it means risking everything. The rumors of alien terrors and strange forces beyond the Rim of Space don’t stop him — they make his mission more urgent. This sci-fi series is full of mystery, adventure and the classic spirit of space exploration. If you like stories about brave explorers, unknown galaxies and the big questions of what lies beyond the stars The Derek Calver Adventures will pull you in from the very first page. Buckle up — once you start you can’t go back.
