Hard Back. Condition: Very Good. Dust Jacket Condition: Very Good. Velez, Walter - Jacket Painting (illustrator). First Edition. 463 Pages. Dust jacket is taped to book. There is an Ex-libris sticker on front endpaper. Beyond that is a very good book with flawless interior text pages. This anthology is signed on the title page by the authors Melinda Snodgrass, John J. Miller, Walter Jon Williams and George R. R. Martin. Back in New York, an underground war has broken out between the Mafia and a Joker gang, and-like the title says-the action is down and dirty. Among the personalities you'll meet are Lazy Dragon, who can animate a carved mouse or transform an origami tiger into a full-size animal; Deadhead, who can steal people's memories, and Buddy Holly- yes, that Buddy Holly-who's about to make a remarkable comeback while revealing a new talent. Prepare for excitement and surprises, as Roger Zelazny, Edward Bryant and eight other Wild Card maestros keep the epidemic going in entertaining proportions. Signed by Author(s).
