==A Premature Prediction Of A Sad End==
In 1993, a post to the Lysator mailing list:
A few months later, the zine was held up again on Lysator as an example of how unrestrained American fanzine pirating was ruining fandom:
Despite the predictions, the zine continued being edited, published and sold, in erratic intervals until 2000.

==Issue 10==
Enarraré 10 was published in 1998. Full colour insert. 90 pages, A4 format, reduced print (60 000 words), coil-bound, board covers.
This is a Space: Above and Beyond Special.
* Inside Outside (Hawkes is in the brig and, for reasons McQueen is having difficulty ascertaining, is reluctant to explain exactly why he started the fight in the bar.)
* An Inauspicious Beginning (A routine mission on the planet, Stonebrow, starts to go seriously awry. Vansen is hard put to keep control of the gung-ho new recruit assigned to the 58th and when he shoots down a Chig sentry, her anger reaches boiling point. The burial detail finds a strange damaged bio-organic octahedron near the body and that's when the problems really begin...)
* 265 Different Kinds Of Cheese ("How can you satisfy an interrogator who refuses to believe that you don't know the answer to a simple question? This is the difficulty facing McQueen and Hawkes as they struggle through two very different situations... McQueen has accepted an invitation to speak at an in-vitro recruitment seminar on Earth - his rationale: "They can't edit me in person" - and has been promptly abducted. When conventional investigations fail, the 58th is given permission to try to find him. They wind up in a very different sort of battlefield: an in-vitro ghetto in New York. And their explanations are met with rank derision. Who in their right mind would believe that a group of natural borns would be led by an in-vitro lieutenant and be looking for a 'tank' who happens to be an officer in the space marines - a colonel no less! - and a flying ace and the leader of the famed Kazbek raid and the pilot who shot down Chiggy von Richthoffen? While Hawkes and the 58th land deeper and more desperately in trouble as they try to counter suspicion, McQueen for once is completely out of his depth trying to figure out what's happening to him, where he is, how he got there and what's wanted from him... Award-winning fan author, Annie Hamilton, turns her attention to the Space: Above and Beyond Universe in this series of inter-connected stories and poems, illustrated by Kathryn Andersen and Annie Hamilton.")

Over 95000 words, it is a full-length novel, and is illustrated throughout with full-page colour inserts. It has a glossy A4 cover and is coil-bound.
* Icarus Walking ("The serious student of military history might just be a little concerned on hearing that the names of two upcoming operations against the Chig were called Mulberry Jam and Anvil. And McQueen is quite well acquainted with the subject of World War II. Worried? You bet. He has been temporarily seconded to the U.S.S.S. Nevada and while there, he receives an unambiguous warning that the bad guys haven't given up and that his life is in danger. In the meantime, Ross knows more than he's saying, Arkie is appalled by what he hears on the copy of a black-box recording he's requisitioned from the pilots of the 82nd squadron, Hawkes receives an extremely unpleasant birthday present, Damphouse is having trouble fending off a nosey reporter who has arrived to do a photo-essay on the Wild Cards, Vansen and West are off to the planet Minerva and Wang -- well, he's just about to alter the fate of the universe by changing one word...Part III of the Parameters of Peace is entitled Icarus Walking and is set between the episodes Sugardirt and If They Lay Me Down To Rest.")

This issue is a UFO Special.
Illustrated by Kathryn Andersen and Annie Hamilton, A4 in size, 120 pages in reduced print, is coil-bound and has a colour cover.
"The long-awaited third part to Catherine Stewart's Inheritors cycle is finally here! By the time SHADO's security chief has any idea that a significant number of the organisation's senior personnel are acting under alien influence, it's almost too late to do anything about it. Almost. And as if that weren't trouble enough, Scotland Yard is nosing around Harlington-Straker studios, the boss seems finally to have lost his marbles, and there's something very odd about the incarcerated alien which Carlin brought back from the arctic. Indeed, it's becoming a very debatable question as to who as got whom prisoner."

The Parameters of Peace : Parts IV and V
* The Fox's Wedding and Utsuroi ("The ephemeral dappling of light under trees, the shadow's leaping lack of substance, the fugitive emptiness between one state and another: all these reflect the Japanese concept of 'Utsuroi', wherein beauty is essentially located at its moment of alteration. That which gives the highest pleasure is not the loveliness of the cherry blossom itself, but the knowledge of its fleeting, evanescent nature. 'Utsuroi' is intrinsic to the ideal of sacrificial heroism. "Who's responsible?" Ross asked in the final episode. Well, it may not be entirely clear who is responsible, but it's perfectly obvious who's going to be held responsible. Which only goes to show that McQueen should have given Ross that Humphrey Bogart movie while there was still time. McQueen himself is, of course, recovering in hospital after having his leg blown off by the Chig ambassador who killed the CEO of Aerotech. Recovering? Perhaps that's not the best word. He's assailed by a constant barrage of thoughts—images of suicide and visions of self-destruction, all accompanied by an incessant drumbeat and one word in every language known to humankind. The word? Honour. Yes, the Chig know where their communications receiver is, they want it destroyed, and they know exactly what psychological buttons to press. Meantime, back at the Saratoga, it's a simple case of: McQueen? -- who you talkin' about, then? It might only have been twenty days since the peace negotiations with the Chig broke down, but it might as well be twenty years. Major Nilsson, the new C.O. of the Wild Cards, has cut such a swathe through their affections that the Colonel is fast receding to a distant memory. Ross, preparing to face a court-martial, sets up his own investigation into how the Chig ambassador was able to smuggle a bomb aboard the Saratoga. The visual record of the negotiations reveals an interesting anomaly—the only person to survive the blast had a gun in the Chig envoy's face at the moment the explosion occurred. Which means - yes, at that range, there shouldn't have been enough left of McQueen to identify, let alone pack off to hospital. Changing? Oh yes, enormously, but perhaps of everyone, McQueen's is the least seismic change of all. Damphousse is recovering from a head injury, West is thinking seriously about getting married, Hawkes is learning a few things about true love, Vansen about the nature of truth and Arkie about consequences. Speaking of consequences, down outside the headquarters of Aerotech in New York, Elroy-EL arrives at a fateful decision.)
* The Parameters of Peace series continues with the short story, The Fox's Wedding (Part IV), and the novel, Utsuroi (Part V). Parts I - III (An Inauspicious Beginning, 265 Different Kinds of Cheese, and Icarus Walking) are still available, though in quite short supply. Poems for Enarraré 14 (some of them award-winning) have been contributed by Katie Jennings, Kellie Matthews-Simmons, Kathryn Andersen and Annie Hamilton."

The Parameters of Peace : Part VI
The World of Epictetus
* "The Stoic philosopher, Epictetus, averred that there are things in life you have control over, there are things in life you don't. And, of course, sometimes the more you try to exert control, the worse the situation becomes. Ross is still facing a court-martial, and the motivation for it gradually becomes clear. Once it does, the outcome is, of course, never in doubt. By the time Ross understands the complex subtlety of the plot, it's almost too late to be found guilty. Which, given the nature of what he realises, might well be the best option. Sallander, suspecting the truth, has already thrown caution to the wind and enlisted all available help to counter the conspiracy. Chaput, in an action that will eventually have serious repercussions, has likewise thrown aside all caution to petition Diane Hayden's help in sending a rescue team to retrieve McQueen. In the meantime, Hawkes and West set off on a completely unauthorised mission to rescue the newly-appointed General. To the Chig homeworld, no less. There are simpler ways to commit suicide, but Hawkes and West are much too single-minded to consider them. McQueen is hardly surprised to find himself once more in the hands of silicate interrogators. They are under the supervision of their Chig masters, who find the stench of humans quite appalling and who are more than a little dismayed at the failure of the assassination squad send to eliminate McQueen and the organic technology bonded to him. It was never in any plan to bring him back..."

This issue is a Space: Above and Beyond Special. The Mandate of Heaven is a novel-length story of over 120 pages (A4 size), reduced print, double columned, approximately 100 000 words. It concludes the Parameters of Peace series. Internal illustrations will be both black and white and in colour.
The Parameters of Peace : Part VIII
The Mandate of Heaven
* The news you've been waiting for! The conclusion to this eight-part series is almost here! Pre-orders are now being taken. As you've probably realised, it's our general policy for our publishing blurbs to be vague and ambiguous, because we hate it when the major plot twist is revealed on the back cover. So bear that in mind as you read this synopsis: The Mongol hordes nearly conquered Europe, almost as far as the Atlantic seaboard. What stopped them was the death of Ghengis Khan. Until it was clear that "The Mandate of Heaven" had been bestowed on his successor, the Mongols felt it wise to proceed with caution. In fact, since assurance of victory cam only when they were certain their ruler possessed the favour of the gods, they began to withdraw towards the east. Supreme political power was the evidence of The Mandate of Heaven and also its outcome. Peace? Not a chance. Not any more. The final Chig offensive begins - and the enemy has no intention of stopping until Earth is utterly destroyed. With their technology that's not going to be much more than a morning's work. E. Alan Wayne was quite correct - they haven't really been trying to this point. But, as events have transpired, they now have very good reason to. The political situation on Earth is in complete turmoil. In an attempt to buy time for a full defence to be mounted, a deceitful message is prepared for transmission to the Chig. It's a mere five words long, but the A.I.s are only prepared to help ensure it is accurately translated into the Chig language, if a serious demonstration of good faith is forthcoming. Why the A.I.s? Well, would you trust the Alien Interpretation Unit? Things are so desperate on Earth that the required 'serious demonstration of good faith' is given. Choice or chance? Choice and chance? The endplay takes an unexpected turn as Elroy turns up a wildcard..."
