Sanity and the Lady :
US $50.00
PS Publishing (UK)
2005,
1st Edition
Hardback,
New/New condition, SIGNED
One of 500 copies, signed by the author. Introduction by Ian R. MacLeod. "They're the reason why xenophobia was invented." So says Uncle Toby, renegade member of the Laurence family. The comfortable Laurence family lead a fairly traditional life. They have a manservant to look after them. The sea is nearby, as is the psychotherapist. Edgar Laurence is a well-known pianist. His grand-daughter, Laura Broughton, is a famous novelist. Of course, the family has its problems. There's an unmarried mother with a small child. There are mobs at the gates, divorces, illicit love affairs and a suicide - or is that two suicides? But life goes on. Until the night when a meteorite burns out in earth's atmosphere. It releases a number of microscopic beings. Well, if not beings, at least functions. They are a mystery, a challenge to human imagination. However, if you have one entering your brain, you may be able to communicate with it, perhaps to your advantage. Here is what humans have long wanted, a chance to study alien life. They do not like it when they get it. Laura Broughton defends the visitors while the world becomes more and more alarmed. That's what gets her into trouble. And finally, the visitors astonish us all. Once more, Brian Aldiss delivers a gripping story, thronged with characters and love's complexities, salted with philosophical undertones, both comical and chilling. As with his recent novels, Super-State and Affairs at Hampden Ferrers, the international aspect of this very English novel shows through.

The Broken Sword :
US $82.50
Compton Russell (UK)
1974,
1st Edition
Hardback,
VG/VG condition, SIGNED
This is the rare Compton Russell edition published for the British Library system in the early 1970's. The author made no secret of the fact that he wasn't fond of the writing in the earliest versions of the story published back in the 1954. It was slightly revised by the author for inclusion in the Ballantine's Adult Fantasy series. This is the first hardcover edition of that revised edition. Most of the copies of this edition went into library's, very few into private hands. The book was essentially published without dustjacket, though it came with a heavy plastic cover that is intact on this copy. The title and authors name are stamped in black on the plastic cover on the front and in white along the spine panel. The book has orange boards quarter-bound along the spine panel in black. The book has some shelf wear and the edges of the page block are dusty. There is some evidence of sticker removal on the front paste down, but this doesn't appear to have actually been a library copy. Inscribed by the author.
