Mass Market Paperback. Condition: Fine. Dust Jacket Condition: No Dust Jacket. Gene Szafran (illustrator). First Printing. Stated 1st Printing. Publisher's glossy pictorial wraps. 12mo. First came the ice -- and a magnificent civilization collapsed beneath the glaciers. Then all men became barbarians living in a time of chaos. But out of confusion came new and perhaps stronger cultures: the Seafolk, who were slowly rediscovering the precious knowledge which had long been forgotten; the Rahidian-Barommian Empire, determined to weave its web of power over the entire world; the Rogaviki, a nomadic people whom many named barbarians though they might prove to be the most advanced civilization of all. A corpse in Arvanneth was nothing except food for stray dogs. That's why adventurer Josserek Derrain was so cautious as he slipped across the city's limits under cover of darkness. Donya of Hervar and Josserek Derrain join forces to save Rogaviki from destruction in Earth's far future. . This is a new, unopened copy in perfect, unmarked condition, with pages yellowing slightly.
