About The Author

Jack Vance

  • “Only Lord Dunsany could create worlds, names, atmospheres as magical as Jack Vance s; and Vance is a better storyteller.” - Poul Anderson

  • “You can’t possibly pass up any book by Jack Vance. He has perfected the trick of creating new worlds so deceptively real that after a while your own home seems imaginary.” - Jerry Pournelle

  • Be warned: reading Vance is addictive. - George R.R. Martin

  • A modern classic by one of the great fantasy and science fiction writers of the 20th Century. A rare tale of an Earth so far in the future as to be nearly unrecognisable to the contemporary reader. - Raymond E. Feist
