Robert Shea has given his full time to writing novels since 1977. He is the co-author of the science-fiction novel ILLUMINATUS!, which won the Hall of Fame Award of the Libertarian Futurist Society and was produced as a play in the United States and in Europe. His historical novels are SHIKE, set in medieval Japan, and ALL THINGS ARE LIGHTS, which, like THE SARACEN, takes place in the era of the Crusades. He was a magazine editor for twenty years and is also a prolific magazine writer.
The Saracen: The Holy War (1989)
Daoud slung his bow across his back and drew his long, curving saif from the scabbard. The noonday sun flashed on it as he held it high. His men roamed and brandished their own swords.The band had caught up with them, and the trumpets and hautboys screamed death to the enemy while the kettledrums rumbled.There was nothing left to protect Charles d'Anjou now. There was not even time for the French leader to run. He seemed to know it. He had his sword out and he held up a white shield with a red cross.Urging the Arabian on, shouting the name of God, Daoud raced toward triumph....He is the man whom Sophia Karaiannides, accomplished courtesan and mistress to a king, is to serve without reservation.The alliance has been struck. The adventure begins....
Mutineer (1959)-
For every weapon there was a defense, but not against the deadliest weapon—man himself!
Star Performer (1960)
Blue Boy's rating was high and his fans were loyal to the death—anyone's death!
Resurrection (1957)
They had been cramped for space, him and his people. Obviously this new age had solved the problem better.
