Description: Futureland by Walter Mosley (signed) Frontispiece by Ron Walotsky (signed) Easton Press First Edition Description: Leatherbound hardback book published by Easton Press in 2001. Bound in top grade light brown leather with 22kt gold lettering and cover artwork. Hubbed spine, acid neutral paper with page edges gilded, satin moire endpapers, and a satin ribbon book mark sewn in. Collector's note, certificate of authenticity and unused publisher supplied bookplate laid in (not attached). Originally issued by Easton Press signed only by the author on the limitation page without inscription or personalization, I have also gotten this copy signed as follows: Signed by the frontispiece artist on the title page without inscription or personalization. Book number 9 of 1,125 copies issued by Easton Press as part of the Signed First Editions of Science Fiction series. Unfortunately, Ron Walotsky died in 2002. I miss his great artwork and talking to him at science fiction conventions. Synopsis: This collection features nine science fiction short stories by author Mosley who, apart from his sf novel BLUE LIGHT is primarily known as a mystery author. Publisher's Note: Nine interconnected short stories describe the high-tech world of the United States in the near future, capturing the lives and fates of such characters as Ptolemy Bent, a child genius whose merciful actions land him in a privatized prison, and Fera Jones, a heavyweight boxing champ who abandons the ring for a political career. Industry reviews: "...[Mosley] combines cyberpunk, fantasy, and the unsettling logic of dreams to create a startlingly inventive dystopia." New York Times Book Review - Nikki Dillon (11/25/2001) Condition: Binding - near fine, like new except for a little bit of very shallow denting to the side page edges. Dust jacket - none, as issued.
