Clean, bright black cloth boards, green gilt to spine. Text block tight, creamy, unblemished, corners sharp. No internal markings, 277 pp. The jacket is bright and glossy; the illustration pops. No tears, chips or fading. Unclipped with $25 price showing on rear cover. Now protected in mylar (see photos). A beautiful copy of Swanwick's wonderfully atmospheric collection of 19 stories, including three nominated for the 1999 Hugo award. Includes a introduction by Bruce Sterling, who calls swan wick a "high voltage visionary." Often compared to Harlan Ellison, his short stories push all the boundries, be it hard science fiction or brutally realistic fantasy or magical realism. Swanwick has written nine novels and more than a dozen short story collections. This is one of his best. His books are sought after by science-fiction collectors and are becoming increasingly hard to find. You won't likely find another in this condition at this price.
