    Soft cover. Condition: Very Good. 1st Edition. Lin Carter could write sword and spacery adventures along with the best of them. "The City Outside the World" is a good example of the genre. On the cover we see two scantily clad humans astride an enormous reptilian steed. It is the fanciful surface of Mars, and the cover tells us that Ryker (our hero) could die in the ruins of Mars … or pass beyond the Crystal Door -- on the rear cover in large red print is announced, Mars : the Skull of a planet picked clean by the wind of time We are told that the crumbling civilizations of Mars were ancient when Earth was new. This is far-flung interplanetary fantasy! TITLE : The City Outside the World. AUTHOR : Lin Carter.

    Hardcover. Condition: Fine. Dust Jacket Condition: Fine. 1st Edition. 1st Printing. Signed. 270 pages. Published in 1997. Retrospective collection of pieces. Now considered a contemporary classic. The First Hardcover Edition. Precedes and should not be confused with all other subsequent editions. Published in a small and limited first print run as a hardcover original only. The First Edition is now scarce. Presents "Dave Barry Is From Mars And Venus". Booger. "In case you're wondering, that's the title of a winning entry from a parody contest that Dave Barry's flagship paper, The Miami Herald, ran in 1989. There's more to Dave Barry than boogers of course. He's the McDonald's of American humor. One, nearly everybody likes him. Two, he's everywhere. Three, when you open one of his books, you know exactly what you're going to get. You'll find the same genial, absurd fantasies, riffs on clippings that Barry insists he is not making up, and bizarre personal adventures that are his trademark. Do you like hamburgers? Of course, and you'll like this book, too" (Publisher's blurb). "Eugene is located in southwest Oregon, approximately 278 billion miles from anything". "If you're looking for a hearty entree that (1) is related to spiders; (2) is descended from a worm; and (3) has mutant baby-poopers walking around on its lips; then you definitely want a lobster" (Dave Barry). An absolute "must-have" title for Dave Barry collectors. This copy is very prominently and beautifully signed in black pen on the title page by Dave Barry. It is signed directly on the page itself, not on a tipped-in page. This title is a contemporary classic. This is one of few such signed copies of the First Hardcover Edition/First Printing still available online and is in especially fine condition: Clean, crisp, and bright. Please note: Copies available online have serious flaws, are subsequent printings, or are remainder-marked. This is surely an accessible and lovely alternative. A scarce signed copy thus. One of the finest humorist/writers and an American national treasure. A fine copy. (SEE ALSO OTHER DAVE BARRY TITLES IN OUR CATALOG) ISBN 0609600664. Signed by Author(s). …

    Hardcover. Condition: As New. Dust Jacket Condition: As New. 1st Edition.

Includes Dedication; The Solar System and Mars; Preface; List of the Rover Team; Prologue; Epilogue; Glossary; Dramatis Personae; Acknowledgments; Index and Photographic Credits. Illustrated with black-and-white photographs. "From Andrew Mishkin, a senior systems engineer at the Jet Propulsion Laboratory and a leader of NASA's robotic program, comes an insider's look at the most fascinating and audacious space project to date - the Mars Pathfinder probe that electrified the world's imagination. Far out of reach of her human creators - one hundred twenty-two million miles from home - a sophisticated, thinking robot smaller than a microwave oven crept among the rocks of an alien landscape. Six-wheeled Sojourner was doing what had never been done before - exploring the rough, red terrain of Mars. Soon, she would beam spectacular pictures of her one-of-a-kind travels back to Earth. And millions of people would be captivated. Now, with the touch of an expert thriller writer, Sojourner operations team leader Andrew Mishkin tells the inside, human story of the Mars Pathfinder team's feverish efforts to build a self-guided, off-roading robot to explore the surface of the Red Planet. With witty, compelling anecdotes, he describes the clash of temperamental geniuses, the invention of a new work ethic, the turf wars, the chewing-gum solutions to high-tech problems, the controlled chaos behind the strangely beautiful creation of an artificial intelligence - and the exhilaration of inaugurating the next great age of space exploration." - from the inner front jacket flap.…

Includes List of Other Books by Thomas Keneally; Author Dedication; Author's Note; Acknowledgments and Further Reading. Illustrated with color front and rear endpaper maps. "Extraordinarily moving.Keneally is a master of character develpment and period detail.Fans of Downton Abbey and Galipoli alike will find much to admire in Keneally's fast-moving, flawlessly written pages." - Kirkus Reviews (starred review). "A sweeping, epic book." - Los Angeles Times. "May be the best novel of Keneally's career.a book that aims for, and achieves, real grandeur." - The Spectator ("one of the Best Books of the Year"). "Superbly exciting to read.an unmissable, unforgettable tribute." - The Times (London). "Not only one of the most ambitious novels in a career that stretches back to 1964, but it might even be the best." - The Daily Telegraph. "A big and brutal book, a new prism through which to think about World War I.breathtaking.magnificent and almost magical." - The Australian. "Along with a Tolstoyan ability to describe the horrors of battle, this amazing book also has an extraordinary intimacy.an altogether towering achievement." - A.N. Wilson. "From the acclaimed author of Schindler's List comes the epic, unforgettable story of two sisters whose lives are trasformed by the cataclysm of the first world war. In 1915, Naomi and Sally Durance, two spirited Australian sisters, join the war effort as nurses, escaping the confines of their father's farm and carrying a guilty secret with them. Though they are used to tending the sick, nothing could have prepared them for what they confront, first on a hospital ship near Gallipoli, then on the Western Front. Yet amid the carnage, the sisters become the friends they never were at home and find themselves courageous in the face of extreme danger and also the hostility from some on their own side. There is great bravery, humor, and compassion, too, and the inspiring example of the remarkable women they serve alongside.
