First in the Dying Earth series: The sci-fi classic from the SFWA Grandmaster, praised as "the greatest living SF writer" by George R. R. Martin.
Jack Vance was 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 Mazirian the Magician (previously titled The Dying Earth), and its sequels—a fascinating, baroque tale set on a far-future Earth, under a giant red sun that is soon to go out forever. The magic of the Dying Earth series would influence the creators of Dungeons & Dragons.
Praise for Jack Vance
"You can't possibly pass up any book by Jack Vance . . . He has perfected the trick of creating new worlds so deceptively real that after a while your own home seems imaginary." ―Jerry Pournelle, New York Times–bestselling author
"The remarkable high consistency of Vance's poetic writing, coupled with his extraordinary visions of exotic planets, is one of the treasures of speculative fiction." ―The Washington Post Book World
"Vance has virtually no peer when it comes to creating sophisticated yet decadent worlds." ―Starlog
