Good. 12mo-over 6¾"-7¾" tall. Repaired; Light Creasing on Front, Rear Covers; Front, Rear Covers, Spine Lightly Chipped; Edges Lightly Soiled. By the author of Dhalgren. SYNOPSIS: A passion for vengeance drove Captain Lorq Von Ray to dare what no mortal had ever done-to sail through the splintering core of a disintegrating sun. Von Ray's obsession drew aimless souls into the vortex of his madness-wandering adventurers who would plug into any ship that promised escape: MOUSE: A young gypsy, he created blindingly beautiful visions on the syrynx, an instrument of sensor projection. IDAS and LYNCEOS: Twins from the outer colonies, one black, one albino. SEBASTIAN: A golden-haired man who traveled the stars with his Tarot-reading mate and six black-taloned beasts. KATIN: The scholar who loved the silent moons of the universe above all the powerful suns and gaudy planets.
