Soft cover. Condition: As New. 1st Edition. First edition of this anthology edited by John Michael Greer and Zendexor, the Kickstarter edition. Has a faint crease to the front cover from shipping, otherwise perfect and appears unread. "There was a time when the solar system was much more interesting than it is today -- when swordsmen dueled along the banks of the Grand Canal beneath the hurtling moons of Mars; when strange creatures writhed in the shadows of the mighty jungles of Venus; when Mercury's Twilight Belt marked a thin band of habitable territory between the lethal heat of the sunward side and the eternal cold of the side that faced the stars; when the many moons of the Jovian and Saturnian systems, the great gas-giant worlds themselves, the tiny frozen sphere of Pluto, and even the myriad worldlets of the asteroid belt, were all crammed with living things, some of them intelligent, some of them dangerous, all of them wonderful." Vintage Worlds collects seventeen stories totaling over 120,000 words of new, original short fiction stories inspired by the stories that appeared in pulp magazines like Weird Tales, Amazing Stories, Planet Stories and so many more. Australian shipping may be cheaper than the Abe quote, which is for a standard hardcover. Shipping can be combined. All overseas buyers need to contact me to check shipping rates prior to ordering.
