Gregory Benford - The Sunborn - HC w/DJ 1st PRINT 2005

Description: "The Sunborn (Adventures of Viktor & Julia)" by Gregory Benford – 1st EDITION 1st PRINT Hardcover w/Dustjacket - Published in 2005 by Aspect - 330 pages - both book and DJ are in EXCELLENT condition. Gregory Benford is a science fiction author and astrophysicist who is on the faculty of the Department of Physics and Astronomy at the University of California, Irvine. As a science fiction author, Benford is best known for the Galactic Center Saga novels, beginning with In the Ocean of Night (1977). Their historic mission to Mars made Julia and Victor the most famous astronauts of all time. Now, decades later, they are ordered by the Consortium to Pluto, where they will rendezvous with another starship led by the brilliant, arrogant Captain Shanna Axelrod. Here, on the frozen ammonia shore of Pluto's methane sea, Shanna has discovered intelligent creatures thriving in the -300 degree temperatures. But even as their findings shift from the amazing to the inconceivable, the two crews must overcome their own intense rivalry to work together. For the most remote reaches of the solar system are filled with unimaginable wonders...and countless forces that will crush all human life. There is some very light brown lines and spots on the borders of the pages (no text is affected), which could either be a production flaw, or simply part of the page design (I haven't seen another copy of this book to determine which), but this book is still in EXCELLENT condition. No collection of Gregory Benford books is complete without this one. Please see the scan for the great artwork on the cover and so you can judge the condition for yourself (unlike many other booksellers, who post generic scans, the book in my scan is the one you will get). You can try to buy this book for less money from one of those eBay booksellers with hundreds, if not, thousands of negatives (you know the ones I refer to) and be lucky if the book is delivered to you in the stated condition (if you even get it at all), or you can buy it from me and be assured of a prompt delivery and of receiving a high quality item true to the stated condition. You won't be disappointed. All previous buyers of my science fiction books have been completely satisfied. I have many others available; please check my listings. The book will be sent via Media mail shipping in the USA. I will combine shipping to reduce charges for multiple items. If you purchase more than one item, please request an invoice for the appropriate combined shipping discount. See my auctions and my eBay store for hundreds of books and a wide variety of sports and non-sports collectibles. All items are packed with care to insure safe delivery. Please contact me if you have any questions. 2-11-23 -- 19.2
