Description

A striking first paperback edition by Fred Saberhagen, one of the great architects of modern science fiction and creator of the acclaimed Berserker series.

Originally appearing in Science Fiction Discoveries before its expansion into this full-length novel, The Veils of Azlaroc transports readers to one of Saberhagen's most imaginative creations—a mysterious world where shimmering temporal veils blur the boundaries between reality, immortality, memory, and destiny. Rich in philosophical speculation and adventurous storytelling, the novel showcases the inventive world-building that made Saberhagen one of the defining voices of late twentieth-century science fiction.

This First Ace Printing (October 1978) is especially desirable for collectors, featuring dramatic cover artwork by celebrated science fiction illustrator Dean Ellis, whose iconic paintings helped define the visual identity of vintage Ace paperbacks during the 1970s and 1980s.

A handsome collector's copy that would be equally at home in a library devoted to classic science fiction, Ace Books, Dean Ellis cover art, or the works of Fred Saberhagen.

Carefully evaluated for condition and described using recognized bookselling grading standards.
