Add to basketPaperback. Condition: Very Good. A collection of eleven science-fiction paperbacks by American, British and French authors. Includes a signed copy of Brian Stableford's The City of Sun A collection of science fiction novels published between the 1960s and the 1980s. Comprised of works by American, British, and French authors, th…e collection contains three first editions of Brian Stableford's work, and a signed copy of his novel The City of Sun. This collection contains Darker Than You Think and The Humanoid Touch by American author Jack Williamson, The Fury by Henry Kuttner, The Penetrators by Anthony Gray, and the first in Jack Vance's Demon Princess Series. The collection also includes an excellent translation of The Ice People by Rene Barjavel, whose works often emphasise the durability of love against a backdrop of a collapsing civilisation, often due to war or technocratic hubris. Barjavel is thought to be the first to think of the inconsistency or grandfather paradox in time travel, exemplified when a time traveller kills an ancestor, consequently effecting their own existence. As well as a conspiracy thriller by American author Edwin Corley, the set includes The Mote in Time's Eye from French writer Gerard Klein. Finally, there are three first editions of Brian Stableford's work, including a copy of The City of Sun which is signed by the author to the title page. Darker Than You Think, The Humanoid Touch, The Balance of Power, and Wildeblood's Empire all have price stickers to the front cover. Sticker to the front cover City of the Sun from Andromeda Bookshop. The fore edge of the text block of the works by Stableford and The Humanoid Touch is yellow. All in the publisher's original paperback binding. Externally, generally smart. There is a diagonal crease across the front cover of Fury, and The Mote in times eye is a little worn to the extremities. The Jesus Factor is a slightly more worn at the joints and the spine is a little cracked. Internally, firmly bound, except Darker Than You Think, where the glue is visible and the first eight pages are disbound but present. Pages lightly age-toned but clean. Very Good.
