The Detection Collection, By Members of The Detection Club (Edited by Simon Brett) â" 2014 Edition Publication: London, HarperCollinsPublishers, 2014 Formatting: 8vo, pp. 240. Condition Report: Near Fine. The book is securely bound with tight hinges and features a remarkably clean, unblemished black hardback binding with bright, unoxidised gilt lettering along the spine. Internally, the pages remain clean, crisp, and bright throughout, showing no evidence of foxing, toning, or heavy handling.

Catalogue Note: This is the first printing of the 2014 reissue published by HarperCollins (indicated by the '1' in the number line on the copyright page). Originally published in 2005 by Orion to celebrate the 75th anniversary of the quintessential Detection Club, this updated anthology brings together stories from the luminaries of British crime fiction. The volume remains unillustrated, placing full emphasis on the stellar textual contributions from genre heavyweights such as P.D. James, Colin Dexter, and Reginald Hill. While this 2014 edition is relatively common on the secondary market, it remains highly desirable for enthusiasts seeking a tight, pristine reading copy or an attractive addition to a comprehensive mystery collection. Published to celebrate the 75th anniversary of the illustrious Detection Club, a private society of British crime writers originally presided over by G.K. Chesterton and Agatha Christie, this anthology gathers eleven original short stories from the modern masters of the genre. Edited by Simon Brett, the collection features brilliant, mind-bending tales of mystery, murder, and deduction from literary giants such as P.D. James, Colin Dexter, Reginald Hill, and Robert Goddard. It is an essential tribute to the enduring legacy of the British whodunit, offering a masterclass in suspense and clever plotting.

Hardcover. Condition: Near Fine. CONDITION: Fine book. Near Fine slipcase. Slight shelf wear and some minor marks. Minor book rubbing. DETAILS: First Thus. Print run: 1st Printing. Illustrated by Simon Brett. 27 × 19 × 6 cm. ABOUT THIS BOOK: The Holy Grail is the ultimate symbol of the unattainable: a mysterious vessel that has haunted the Western imagination for eight centuries. Bridging the worlds of chivalric romance and deep religious mysticism, the Grail legend evolved from a simple poetic device into a profound spiritual quest that defined medieval literature. This Folio Society edition, curated and introduced by renowned Arthurian scholar Richard Barber, brings together five foundational medieval masterpieces that shaped the myth. From the early, enigmatic verses of Chrétien de Troyes' Perceval to the deeply spiritual culminating quest of Galahad, these newly modernised translations follow King Arthur's most celebrated knights, including Gawain and Lancelot, as they abandon the earthly glory of the Round Table to pursue a heavenly ideal. Beautifully bound in quarter-leather and featuring twelve haunting wood engravings by artist Simon Brett, this volume is an essential anthology for anyone captivated by the enduring magic, chivalry, and mystery of the Arthurian world.
