Morressy, John: Frostworld And Dreamfire. 26999
Doubleday: London. 1977.
First edition (& 1st printing).
Hardcover.
''his early books were generally space opera, through which medium he constructed a series of interesting alien societies, and most of them shared a common galactic background: a somewhat disordered polity still dominated by humans, though with no imperial government. Within this scenario, his stories tended to the dark and extravagant end of the sf-epic spectrum, as in the Del Whitby trilogy - Starbrat (1972), Nail Down the Stars (1973; vt Stardrift 1975) and Under a Calculating Star (1975) - which intriguingly tells the same tale of interstellar intrigue and revolution from three partial points of view; none of the protagonists (orphans or impostors all) knows the whole story. Also set explicitly in the same galactic scene were A Law for the Stars (1976) and FROSTWORLD AND DREAMFIRE (1977). The latter is a strongly constructed and occasionally rousing epic of a metamorphic humanoid's search for a breeding-partner; the last of his race on his native planet, he must find her elsewhere or the race dies'' (John Clute/Encyclopedia of SF).
Fine copy in a fine dustjacket (as new) but for a touch of rubbing to rear panel.
Price:
10.00 GBP
