Reviews
Vance is the greatest living SF writer. His work continues to exhibit imagination, originality, and style, three things sadly lacking in 95% of the SF being published nowadays., Vance demonstrates his talent for creating exotic and sometimes bizarre cultures that offer ironic commentary on the excesses and foibles of human society. The author's arch prose and dry humor have won him an avid following., The works of Jack Vance have boasted an ardent following for the past four decades, and his newest should be cause for rejoicing among the faithful. The remarkable high consistency of Vance's poetic writing, coupled with his extraordinary visions of exotic planets, is one of the treasures of speculative fiction., "Vance is the greatest living SF writer.

      Excellent shape. Tracking down the whole series in one book is a huge plus. Can't wait to dive into these classic pulps.

    • The best thing about being in the hospital!

      I took the Tales of the Dying Earth with me to the hospital . It helped me stay amused and cheerful through a tough 3 days.
