Note: According to Susan Grant's introduction to the 2016 edition of "The Legend of Banzai Maguire": "Originally, the "2176" series" consisted of five books written by four different authors presented as a serial within a world I created. The publisher subsequently went out of business, and the rights to books 1 and 5 reverted to me. Recently, I took on the huge task of modernizing and rewriting both to stand completely separate from the old series."
