Hardcover. Condition: Very Good. Dust Jacket Condition: Very Good. 1st Edition. GOLLANCZ. LONDON 1990, 1990. First British Edition.Very good (spine lean) in a very good (poorly applied mylar cover) dj. Book One of the 'Heritage Universe.'. The twin planets of Opal and Quake suffer from Summertide -- huge tidal forces as both planets orbit closest to their sun. This Summertide is to be even more violent, for not only are the planets orbiting close to their sun, but there is a grand conjunction of the neighbouring stars and planets to make this event even more violent. Adding to this mix are people's own agendas and perhaps even an insight to the long lost alien "Builders".

Hardback: 8" x 5¼". Condition: Fair: Heavier signs of wear. Dust Jacket Condition: Fair. Cover Art: Uncredited (illustrator). 1st UK Edition. © 1990: 1st in the 'Heritage' series of books. 1st UK edition, 1st printing. Ex-library book with usual stamps & markings:- Synopsis: Set more than four thousand years in the future, 'Summertide' introduces a galaxy widely populated by humans and a variety of intelligent aliens, all of whom live in the shadow of the vanished race known only as the Builders. Nothing is known about the Builders, but the gigantic artifacts they have left behind - many of them still hardly understood - dominate the areas of space in which they are found. One such is the double-planet system of Opal and Quake - the former covered in water, the latter a desert - connected by a Builder device called the Umbilical. It is to this system that a variety of humans and aliens come, ostensibly to witness Summertide - the annual tidal wave which sweeps across Opal:- Review(s): "Full of invention, reminiscent of Arthur Clarke and Greg Bear, 'Summertide' is by far Charles Sheffield's best novel to date: a work which establishes him firmly in the front-rank of sf writers":- (original cost £13.95).
