Is Dwight Decker on this list? I had some questions about the new

I could ask him. I owe him a letter anyway. What were the questions?
(Yes, I still write old-fashioned streetmail letters, and so does
Dwight. But it's faster to e-mail me.)

Interesting! I never heard of this one, even though it's apparently been
out since Janurary. Two questions:
1) Where in relation to the Rhodan chronology does it fit? I followed the
Ackerman US editions until they stopped, and when I tried the (abortive)
US relaunch from the early 00s, the jump ahead was so long that the books
had almost no relation to what I remembered.
2) How is the translation? I always found Mrs. Ackerman's renditions very
natural, but the re-launch books were so stilted I found it a chore to
read them..

According to http://www.perrypedia.proc.org/Lemuria_%28Serie%29 it's
the year 1327 NGZ (New Galactic Era), the year 4914 AD. It's a
paperback series and apparently fits either into or between the pulp
arcs "Der Sternozean" (2200-2299) and "Terranova" (2300 to 2391/current issue).

Pretty far ahead. (pause for a moment while I fumble thru the references
at the most excellent fan reference site http://www.pr-materiequelle.de.)
The Lemuria books are apparently set in the year 1327 New Galactic Era, which
translates to 4914 AD. As far as relationship to the "main" PR storyline,
as near as I can figure, they fit between the end of the Tradom Empire cycle
(PR #2100-2199) and the beginning of the Star Ocean cycle (PR #2200-2299).

I didn't notice any particular problems with the translation.

Thanks. Sounds like it's probably too far ahead of the Ace editions for me
to have any "I always wondered how that came out" investment in it, but
maybe I'll pick it up for curiosity's sake.

This is interesting. What were the 00 relaunch books, and how many
were there?

A few years back, a very small outfit (I'm not sure it was really much more
than one guy behind it) called Vector Enterprises got the rights to publish
a US edition of Perry Rhodan. They managed to actually produce four
translated issues (PR #1800, 1801, 1802, 1803) before going under. They had
also planned to come out with an English edition of the Posbi cycle
(PR #100-149), thus finishing up the storyline arc that the Ace and Master
Publications editions hadn't gotten to finish in the late 70s, but that
fell thru too.
