Like you kind of hint or wonder, Bick, I suppose it's possible I had the Black Hole novelization - I have the faintest feeling I might have - but why? I hated the movie. I also might have checked out one of those Star Trek Log books from the library but that may have been some other ST book by someone else. I'm kind of amazed but, looking over his ISFDB bibliography, I can only recall having read probably both the Alien(s) books and definitely Season of the Spellsong (the first three Spellsinger books) and possibly the next set. Where this novel will sit in the chronology isn't known (presuming it's published), though it is likely to be after Flinx Transcendent. Running from the Deity (2005) – Pip and Flinxįlinx Transcendent (2009) – Pip and Flinxįoster has written a new Pip and Flinx novel, tentatively called 'By the Throat' according to his website, which will be his first return to the Humanx Commonwealth universe in 6 years. The End of the Matter (1977) – Pip and Flinx The Tar-Aiym Krang (1972) – Pip and Flinx Phylogenesis (1999) – Founding of the Commonwealthĭirge (2000) – Founding of the Commonwealthĭiuturnity's Dawn (2002) – Founding of the Commonwealthįor Love of Mother-Not (1983) – Pip and Flinx The novels are standalone books set in the Humanx universe, unless otherwise stated.ĪDF Humanx Commonwealth Books in Chronological Order Anyway, I found the order online and have set it down here in an edited fashion so other members have access to the info, in case that's of interest. I spent a bit of time trying to work out where Midworld sat relative to The Tar-Aiym Krang, and so on.

The exact order had me slightly puzzled, I must admit. All are set in the same universe however, and there is an acknowledged chronology with standalone novels intermingling with Pip and Flinx and Icerigger, etc. The list of Foster's Humanx Commonwealth novels is now pretty long, and incorporates several series. I've started reading another ADF book: The End of the Matter, which is a Pip and Flinx novel.
