The invading pirates from Perz have set their sights on a new goal in Lentari, capturing the dwarven Narian Power Hammer, which promises supreme physical strength and longevity to its owner. But trekking through the enormous underground cavern system that the dwarves call home does not come naturally to men of the sea, and Captain Flinn has his hands full, keeping his crew in line as they search for the elusive magical hammer. Flinn has one thing going for him, the Alchos Stone, which can make his men, his ship and himself invisible. The thing that will work against him, however, is that he’s being tracked by Steve and Sarah Miller and their Lentarian allies, the dragons. Can the Millers catch up with Flinn and his men before they find the Hammer, create massive destruction, and escape? And can they retrieve the powerful Fang of the Red Oskorlisk, which Flinn has already stolen, the talisman that gives the dragons their power, before the pirates break away and take to the sea again?

Steve and Sarah Miller find themselves back in the manor house—but it’s 120 years before their time! The portal which delivered them into this mess is one-way, leaving them no way back to their present lives. Sarah has been kidnapped, Steve must return to Lentari for the special crystal necessary to create the two-way portal, and all of this is crucial to Steve’s very existence. He meets his great-great-grandfather, who reveals that he is Lentarian, which means Steve has Lentarian blood too. Traveling between worlds was challenging enough. Making the journey in another time becomes dangerously complex when the realization strikes that anything they change now will have far-reaching repercussions into the future. But if Steve can’t save Sarah and get them back to the present, the history of Lentari as well as their own fate, are in jeopardy.

It’s a lazy summer day in Coeur d’Alene when Steve and Sarah Miller get a visit from one of the most powerful ancients in Lentari. Something is dreadfully wrong and only they can solve it. But what the problem is, Eion cannot explain. They must go, and soon! They arrive to find nothing the same as they left it, a few months earlier. Alliances between dragons and humans, between dwarfs and others … none of those exist now. None of their friends exist. The king and queen are two people the Millers have never heard of, and the entire kingdom is not prospering as it once did. As more and more mysteries unfold, the terrifying truth occurs to them. Someone has altered the past in order to change the present. And Steve and Sarah have a pretty good idea who that is. They will need to find and confront an old foe who nearly killed Sarah, and they must find a way to undo the harm he created. How will they stop him—this time permanently?

After learning they’ve inherited property from reclusive grandparents he hardly knew, Steve and Sarah Miller decide to take a few days off to investigate their newfound fortune in the quiet Idaho resort town of Coeur d’Alene. The inheritance turns out to be beyond their wildest dreams, a vast mansion with lovely gardens. While exploring, they discover a unique set of carved doors on the top floor of their new home. Disguised as a simple door, a portal is accidentally activated and Steve and Sarah find themselves staring at the amazing sight of a lush forest beyond. It’s a tantalizing decision: to check it out or to run. Curiosity getting the better of them, they step through, the portal disappears, and they are on a one-way journey to a land where people have strange powers and where mythical creatures abound. Too late, they discover that they are confronted by dragons, griffins, and bugs of nightmarish proportions. To get home they decide to enlist the aid of the local king and queen. Oddly, they are expected at the castle, and it is revealed their arrival had long been foretold by an ancient prophecy which bestows upon them the status of Royal Bodyguards to the young crown prince. Now, they are stuck on a foreign world where danger lurks everywhere, and the newly appointed bodyguards must find a way to return home and to keep the young prince safe.

Bone marrow transplantation, the goal which integrates hemato logists, immunologists, geneticists, oncologists and specialists of several other fields, has overcome its state of stagnation in recent years. Clinically as well as experimentally new approaches to old problems and new conclusions from recent findings proliferate: bone marrow transplantation in leukemic remission, bone marrow growth in cell culture, bone marrow manipulation with antisera, bone marrow differentiation in histoincompatible hosts, immuno suppression with partial body irradiation to cite just a few. These and other new developments were discussed by experts from 12 countries in and outside the European Community during an international seminar held on March 8-10, 1979 by the "Institut fur Hamatologie, GSF", under the auspices of the European Communities. The editors thank both the contributors to this symposium, who made it a successful meeting and submitted their manuscripts punctually, and the publishers, who have provided a volume of high quality in good time. They are also grateful for the valuable cooperation from numerous colleagues at the Institut fur Hamato logie.
