About this Item
Fine, both book and jacket. Signed by Harlan Ellison and Larry Niven on the title page. Toronto: Bantam Books, 1985. 'Medea: Harlan's World, conceived, orchestrated and in part written by him, first inspired in a seminar he taught; others who contributed to the creation of this planet made "from cosmic dust, from the chained lightning of their imaginations, and populate it, and write stories that take place on its mythic, pragmatic surface" include Jack Williamson, Thomas M. Disch, Larry Niven, Frank Herbert, Frederik Pohl, Kate Wilhelm, Hal Clement, Theodore Sturgeon, Poul Anderson, and Robert Silverberg, as well as Ellison himself; the art herein is by Kelly Freas (including his rather magnificent color foldout), and the cartography of Medea is by Diane Duane. Octavo, illustrated wrap-around jacket by Freas, maroon and black boards with blue spine imprinting, 532 pp. Fine, virtually perfect, books and jacket. A large, hefty Book Club Edition example of Ellison's memorable symphony of creation. Note: this Bantam book club edition - oddly apparently much scarcer than the the Phantasia Press first edition - expresses no ISBN number, though it cannot have the same one as Phantasia's. Ships in a sturdy new box, of course. Truly unusual, For a genre collector. 11. Seller Inventory # 63952
