Rather trite story of two bitter enemies, human and alien, re-united on an alien planet...

An AI decides it does not want to pretend to be a human anymore...Idea is good but not much is made of it...

Alien Wergens enjoy being with humans yet humans sometimes find this devotion unnerving...A rather predictable tale.

Two people land on a alien planet, which is peppered with strange derelict towers, having made discoveries using a drug called 'Inspiration'. They attempt to communicate with a strange flying creature, a Kawkawroon, and the 'dialogue' is seen differently by each. Hidden motives become clear and bad things are done but all ends well, as towers appear on Earth. Extremely cliched in style and story ideas.
