Near Fine - very. See description and scans. 'No Time for Heroes & Alices World' by Sam Lundwall. Two Complete Novels. First paperback Edition, ACE Double #58880. Two Complete Novels, an ACE Sci-Fi twosome, back to back and inverted. First paperback edition. New York: Ace Books, Inc., 1971. 16mo, illustrated wraps, 131 + 122 pp, respectively, + 3 pp ads in between. A rather amazing Near Fine, for a pulp piece - the short line drawn through the tiny series number and price in the upper left corner of the first cover (scan) being the only other condition description to make short of "Fine' - which is very uncommon for 70s pulps such as this. A scarce example of two collector genres - sci-fi and pulp fiction. See subheads on cover scans for the themes, respectively. Ships in stout protection, of course. LG3.

Both novels were written contemporaneously and share a basic set-up: travelers to an abandoned planet, where they find people's hallucinations are real and fulfill their deepest desires. "Alice's World" is a straightforward science fiction tale, whereas "No Time for Heroes" is a satire. A sequel to the latter, "Bernhard the Conqueror" was published by DAW Books in 1973.
