Wolfe, Gene: Peace. 06701
Harper & Row: NY. 1975.
First edition (& 1st printing).
Hardcover.
The author's first novel. In Pringle, Modern Fantasy: The 100 Best Novels #58.
''his first fantasy novel, PEACE (1975), may be his finest. Intricately told through nests of interconnecting stories, none, significantly, is ever concluded and seemingly from the viewpoint of a man in late middle age reflecting with some amiability on his life in a small town somewhere in the US Midwest, it is in fact a posthumous fantasy whose implications are complexly appalling. Dennis Weer, the narrator, who when his narrative begins has been dead for many years, turns out to have been at the epicentre of an unknown (but not small) number of deaths, and may have actually murdered several of the novel's characters, whose lives are anyway truncated by the failure of any of the embedded stories actually to end. The elegy evoked by the novel has, therefore, a singularly uneasy affect; and any peace obtainable by the protagonist is very much that of the grave'' (John Clute/Encyclopedia of SF).
Faint spotting along page edges, else a fine copy in a near fine dustjacket with one short closed tear.

Wolfe, Gene: Soldier Of Arete. 00194
New English Library (NEL): London. 1990.
First British edition (& 1st printing).
Hardcover.
Sequel to SOLDIER OF THE MIST (1986).
''most interesting perhaps is the Latro sequence, comprising Soldier of the Mist (1986) and SOLDIER OF ARETE (1989), with further volumes projected. Set in ancient Greece about 500BC, it is narrated in short chapters each representing a day's written-down recollections on the part of Latro, a soldier whom a goddess has punished by removing his capacity to remember anything for more than 24 hours. The sequence thus works, on every possible level, as a mirror image of The Book of the New Sun, with Latro's memory-loss reversing Severian's inability to forget, ancient Greece reversing Urth -- being at the start rather than the end of things -- and the series as a whole being conspicuously open-ended rather than shaped inexorably around Severian's Coming'' (John Clute/Encyclopedia of SF).
Fine copy in a fine dustjacket (as new) with review slip laid in.

Wolfe, Gene: The Urth of the New Sun. 00323
Victor Gollancz: London. 1987.
First edition (& 1st printing).
Hardcover.
Sequel to the (4-book series) Book of the New Sun. This edition published in August 1987 and launched at the Brighton World SF Convention held the same month: the Tor edition was published three months later ('November 1987' is stated on the American edition copyright page).
''the sequel (to the 4 volume Book Of The New Sun series) The Urth of the New Sun, takes Severian through reality levels of the Universe to the point-ambiguous in time and space, though related to the Omega Point posited by Pierre Teilhard de Chardin (1881-1955) -- where he will be judged as to his Autarchal fitness to bring the New Sun home. As foreordained, he passes the test. Urth is drowned in the floods that mark the passing of the white hole, the rebirth of light. Some survive, to begin again; or to continue in their ways'' (John Clute/Encyclopedia of SF).
