This page is intended to give some information about the series
Perry Rhodan. (And Atlan).
Perry Rhodan is a science fiction series mainly in novella-format, started
in Germany in 1961, and named after its principal protagonist. New
stories appear on a weekly basis, and no. 2000 (!) has recently been published,
in December 1999.
The first 145 of these stories have appeared in an English translation,
mainly in paperback format, now out of print.
NOTE: A new English edition is now available. The first four issues
(#1800 through to #1803) are
available from the publisher, and new issues are planned to be produced soon.
Atlan is Rhodan's oldest and longest companion (almost, anyway), and in 1969
he received his own series, which no longer appears. Five of these stories have
been translated into English.
Interesting sites about Perry Rhodan are:

Current American Publisher's
Webpage (which containeth many spoilers).
