Om denne e-boken
The Dying Earth series concludes as “a group of magicians embark on various adventures . . . recounted in Vance’s wonderful, unique prose” (The Guardian).
Hugo and Nebula Award–winning author Jack Vance is one of the most remarkable talents to ever grace the world of science fiction. His unique, stylish voice has been beloved by generations of readers. One of his enduring classics is his The Dying Earth series, fascinating, baroque tales set on a far-future Earth, under a giant red sun that is soon to go out forever.
Rhialto the Marvellous contains three linked novellas about the adventures of the wizard Rhialto across the decadent landscape of the Dying Earth, under its swollen red sun.
“Chock full of the ludicrous circumstances and strange humor that Jack Vance fans love.” —Fantasy Literature
“In the end, there is nothing like Rhialto the Marvellous in Vance’s oeuvre . . . one of his most under-appreciated best.” —Speculiction
