"With the proper schooling young Rune would be one of the greatest bards her world has ever seen. Even if only she knows it. Unfortunately the daughter of a tavern wench at the Hungry Bear no matter how talented doesn't get much in the way of formal training. One night to back up a brag she probably wouldn't have made if she weren't so mad she went up to play her fiddle for the Ghost of Skull Hill. Everyone knows that no one who has ever gone up Skull Hill at night has come down again. Not alive anway. But when the ghost appears Rune strikes a bargain: if the ghost tires of her playing before morning her life is his; if he is still listening when the sun glints over yonder hill she will have earned both life and a sack of silver. Let the music begin - ." 2. The Robin and the Kestrel - 373 pp 1994 ISBN 0671876287. "After the affairs recounted in Book I Robin a gypsy lass and bard and Kestrel semi-fugitive heir to a throne he does not want have married their fortunes together and travel the open road seeking their happiness where they may find it. This is their story. But it is also the story of the Ghost of Skull Hill the very ghost who gave Rune a bag of silver and her start in life rather than her death when she played the night away. Together the Robin the Kestrel and the Ghost will foil a plot to drive all music from the land - but first the Robin and the Kestrel must tame the killer Ghost." 2.5. A Cast of Corbies Bardic Choices - 311 pp 1994 ISBN 0671722077. "A strange pall has settled over Alanda. Everywhere representatives of the Church seek to ferret out unauthorized magic - and music because it is magic at its roots has come under suspicion. And that which is suspect if it cannot be crushed altogether must be stripped of its mystery made tame and answerable to the power of the priests. Throughout the lands the Free Bards those who will not or cannot join the priest-condoned Guild are being driven away. But all who are Free are free to choose: to flee or to fight." 3. The Eagle & the Nightingales - 410 pp 1996 ISBN 0671877062. "Why is the High King of the Human kingdoms not doing his job - and thereby allowing the Church to fill the power vacuum in the human lands of Alanda This is a matter of some concern to Nightingale and her friends: the Church is becoming ever more overtly hostile to non-human sentients of which there are several species in Alanda as well as to anything that it does not at least indirectly control such as gypsies and Free Bards. To discover just what is going on she will join forces with T'fyrr a birdman with the visage of a raptor and the voice of an angelic choir. And before the King - and through him the gypsies Free Bards and non-humans of the twenty kingdoms - is saved they the Eagle and the Nightingale will have become if not quite lovers then far more than friends - ."

The Mad God's Amulet - 142 pp Mayflower London 1972. "Dorian Hawkmoon's betrothed Yisselda had been abducted by the Mad God an evil sorcerer who had usurped the Red Amulet of the Runestaff.

A HANDFUL OF MEN QUARTET. 1. THE CUTTING EDGE. 2. UPLAND OUTLAWS. 3. THE STRICKEN FIELD. 4. THE LIVING GOD. 4 BOOKS IN TOTAL.
New York: Del Rey / Ballantine The four volumes of the "A Handful of Men" quartet - 6 7/8" H. 1. The Cutting Edge - 307 pp 1993 first printing ISBN 034538167X. "Beautiful Queen Inos married the loyal stableboy Rap and made him her king. Fifteen years went by Rap and Inos were comfortable secure and truly happy raising their family in the little backwater kingdom of Krasnegar well removed from the hurly-burly of great affairs. But in far-off Hub the old Imperor's health - and some said his sanity - deteriorated inexorably. The borderlands were seething. Prince Emshandar - or Shandie as Rap knew him - found himself leading his grandather's armies into terrible battles where victory and justice hung in gravest doubt. And now the end of the millennium was at hand ushered in by prophecies of cataclysmic upheaval on a scale never before imagined. All across Pandemia sensible people tried to dismiss a growing sense of unease as superstitious nonsense. Then a God appeared to Rap and warned him that the prophecies spoke the least of the truth. Devastation was a certainty; total destruction loomed. The very fabric of the world was at risk. And it was all Rap's fault. The last thing in the world Rap wanted was another adventure. And it might be the last thing he would ever get - ." 2. Upland Outlaws - 299 pp 1993 first printing ISBN 0345384776. "The power-mad dwarf-sorcerer Zinixo had driven Emshandar V from his throne. He had shattered the ancient Protocol that kept tenuous peace among Pandemia's warlocks. And his conquest had only begun. Somehow the deposed Imperor had escaped his clutches - so far - but Shandie would soon be found. Then the Impire would be Zinixo's alone. Outlying countries would fall beneath his fist. And at long last he would wreak fabulous revenge upon Rap of Krasnegar. For Zinixo wielded the greatest magic ever imagined: an army of slave-sorcerers bound to serve his every whim - to the death." 3. The Stricken Field - 338 pp 1994 first printing ISBN 0345388747. "The 'forces' opposing the tyrant Zinixo were paltry their leaders few. Now as armies both magic and mundane swept across the lands each rebel leader carried the flame of freedom to a different corner of troubled Pandemia. Shandie rode north - into disaster. Raspnex Zinixo's warlock uncle disappeared pursuing his own secret plans. And Rap toiled through fetid steaming jungles in search of a powerful troll-witch who did not want to be found - all unaware that his loved ones were far from home and further yet from any prayer of safety." 4. The Living God - 429 pp 1994 first printing ISBN 034538878X. "The sorcerer Zinixo had declared himself Almighty and none could doubt that the end of the era was at hand. Goblin hordes ravished the Impire. Dragons incinerated entire legions in the space of a heartbeat. The slave-sorcerers of the Covin practiced whatever barbarities Zinixo required. Soon would come midsummer and the Nordland Moot and the smell of blood upon the air. Soon the mad dwarf-sorcerer would truly reign supreme - unless Rap of Krasnegar could conjure a miracle at the end of the millennium. Rap and his rebels were recruiting any magic-users the Covin had not yet perverted. And when the time came to move against Zinixo - if it came - they would aim one single killing blow against the tyrant. It wasn't much of a plan. But it was all they had - ."

New York: Ace 1 - 7 / TOR 9 The first seven books of the Vlad Taltos Series plus volume nine 8 books in total 6 7/8" H. Please note volume 8 - Dragon - is not included in this grouping. 1. Jhereg - 239 pp Ace 1983 16th printing ISBN 0441385540. "There are many ways for a young man with quick wits and a quick sword to advance in the world. Vlad Taltos chose the route of the assassin. To his other qualifications he added two things: The first was a smattering of witchcraft - badly thought of on Dragaera but only a fool refuses such a weapon. The second was his constant companion a young jhereg its leathery wings and poisonous teeth always at Vlad's command its alien mind psionically linked with his own. Vlad has never regretted the sorcerous bargain he made with his jhereg's mother: 'I offer your egg long life and fresh red meat without struggle and I offer it my friendship. I ask for aid in my endeavors. I ask for its wisdom and I ask for its friendship'." 2. Yendi - 209 pp Ace 1984 1st printing ISBN 0441944566. "Back when I bargained for the wise-mouthed reptilian who sits perched on my shoulder his mother wished me: 'Long life and good hunting'. I told her I was not a hunter. She said: 'You will be - .' She was right. My name is Vlad Taltos. I am an assassin. And this is the story of my early days in the House of Jhereg of how I found myself in a Jhereg war and how I fell in love with the woman who killed me." 3. Teckla - 214 pp Ace 1987 Ist printing ISBN 0441799779. "I'd always known they were. Teckla were lazy stupid cowardly peasants. Revolting. Old joke. But now they were revolting against the Empire. New joke. And a Jhereg crimelord feeling the pinch was popping the rebels. No joke. But the real joke I was protecting them. Me. Lord Vlad Taltos - loyal grandson loving husband. Jhereg. Sorcerer. Assassin. Everything the rabble hated. Not that I craved wet-nursing a mob of slogan-slobbering doomed radical loonies all of whom wanted me dead. Particularly since my royal peers all of House Jhereg also wanted me dead." 4. Taltos - 181 pp Ace 1988 1st printing ISBN 0441182003. "Journey to the Land of the Dead. All Expenses Paid! Not my idea of an ideal vacation but this was work. After all even an assassin has to earn a living. The trouble is everyone knows that a living human cannot walk the Paths of the Dead and return alive to the land of men. But being an Eastener is not exactly like being human by Dragaeran standards anyways. Thus the rule doesn't apply to me - I hope." 5. Phoenix - 245 pp Ace 1990 1st printing ISBN 0441662250. "In Gods we trust. All other pay cash. Always a good rule if you're in my line of work but who'd think a god would take me up on it There I was facing certain death when the Demon Goddess answered my prayers for rescue. Strange she should take an interest in me considering I'm an assassin. Stranger that the Demon Goddess needs to offer me work. Well my patron deity wants a favor and who is Vlad Taltos to say no." 6. Athyra - 243 pp Ace 1993 1st printing ISBN 0441033423. "The Magnificent Seven - A bit of an overstatement. Minus six actually. Which leaves one. Me - Vlad Taltos sorcerer sometime witch and ex-assassin. Plus my two faithful jhereg. Which makes three sort of. But even we can have a hard time when we take on the biggest hitters of the House of Jhereg. Here I thought I could retire in peace - ." 7. Orca - 290 pp Ace 1996 1st printing ISBN 0441001963. "Granted walking around with two jhereg on your shoulders is not the best disguise for an ex-assassin wanted all over the Empire. But a young boy saved my life and now he needs my help. And Vlad Taltos always pays his debts. Even if it means uncovering a financial scandal big enough to bring down the House of Orca - and if I'm lucky the entire Empire." 9. Issola - 255 pp TOR 2002 1st printing ISBN 0812589173. "Okay so maybe I've been living in the woods too long where you can't even get a decent cup of klava first thing in the morning. So who should turn up but Lady Teldra the courtly servant of my old friend the Dragonlord Morrolan Teldra wants my help because Morrolan and Aliera have disappeared and according to Sethra Lavode it looks like they may be in the hand of the Jenoine.

And that the warrior Dahven had escaped the doom prepared for him by his treacherous brothers. For too long has the Emperor stood apart from the conflict but now the people cry out for 'One Land One Duke'. The time for hiding is over. At last the healing power of the Night-Threads stands against demonic Hell-Light while the destiny of all who live hangs in the balance. And three ordinary visitors from Earth must use their newfound talents - as sorceress shapeshifter and soldier - to rescue a world that is now even their own. 4.

ADVENTURES OF PIP AND FLINX SERIES. 7 OF THE FIRST 8 VOLUMES. THE TAR-AIYM KRANG / ORPHAN STAR / THE END OF THE MATTER / BLOODHYPE / FLINX IN FLUX / MID-FLINX / REUNION. 7 BOOKS IN TOTAL.
New York: Del Rey / Ballantine Seven of the first eight books of the 'Pip and Flinx' series - 6 7/8" H. Please note: "For Love of Mother-Not" is not included in this grouping - it would be book 1 or book 5 depending on whether you are reading in publication or chronological order. 1. Tar-Aiym Krang - 251 pp 1983 8th printing ISBN 034530280X. "The planet Moth attracted unwary travelers hardened space-sailors and merchant buccaneers - a teeming constantly shifting horde that provided a comfortable income for certain quick-witted fellows like Flinx and his pet flying-snake Pip. With his odd talents the pickings were easy enough so that Flinx did not have to be dishonest - most of the time. In fact it hardly seemed dishonest at all to steal a starmap from a dead body that didn't really need it anymore. But Flinx wasn't quite smart enough. He should have wondered why the body was dead!" 2. Orphan Star - 234 pp 1977 20th printing ISBN 0345324498. "His birth had been shrouded in mystery and all Flinx knew of himself was that he'd been abandoned by those who had spawned him. Raised by Mother Mastiff in the marketplace of Drallar Flinx eventually discovered that his unknown parents had bequeathed to him a curious legacy - a legacy of extraordinary mental powers that were both an incalculable asset and a most dangerous liability. It would lead him - and his potent protector the minidrag Pip - into the clutches of one of the most depraved and powerful men in the galaxy - on to a harrowing search for the truth about his birth - and out of one world into another on his most dangerous adventure ever." 3. End of the Matter - 246 pp 1987 7th printing ISBN 0345334655. "Flinx set out for Alaspin the ruggedly primitive homeplanet of his flying snake. There he hoped to find the giant man with the gold earring who somehow held the key to Flinx's mysterious past and to the strange powers he possessed. Chasing down his heritage was trouble enough but Flinx didn't know what real trouble was until he realized that the Qwarm - a deadly assassin squad - were three steps behind him with a contract to kill." 4. Bloodhype - 249 pp 1977 2nd printing ISBN 0345258452150. "Bloodhype was the most dangerous drug in the galaxy. It caused instant addiction followed by an excruciatingly slow death and there was no known - or unknown - antidote. Supposedly the drug had been totally eradicated from the humanx galaxy years before. At least that's what everyone thought. But somehow mysteriously that dreadful substance was back in circulation on Repler and threatening to wreak havoc throughout the known galaxy. Someone somewhere was secretly manufacturing Bloodhype but nobody seemed to know where or who!". 5. Flinx in Flux - 324 pp 1988 12th printing ISBN 0345343638. "When Flinx and Pip found an unconscious young woman on a riverbank deep in the jungles of Alaspin Flinx wasn't surprised. Nor was he shocked to learn that the woman Clarity Held was a brilliant scientist abducted from a remote outpost on inhospitable Longtunnel by a group of fanatic assassins. Flinx could see no harm in returning Clarity to her base before continuing on his way but he was tired of solving other people's problems. He had his own life to get back to. So he was unprepared for the emotional effect the beautiful Clarity had on him. But while Flinx fought to deal with his unexpected dilemma the assassins were still at work. They would do anything to stop the research on Longtunnel and would kill anyone or anything that got in their way." 6. Mid-Flinx - 346 pp 1996 2nd printing ISBN 0345406443. "An evil rich man was out to kidnap the minidrag for his personal zoo and Flinx and Pip were on the run again - this time into uncharted space on a random course they hoped would foil their pursuers. They found more than they bargained for when they landed on Midworld a verdant planet covered by an immense jungle hosting an incredible variety of plant and animal life - all of it unknown and all of it deadly. And now they were in real trouble. Their hiding place was in danger of discovery and their only hope lay with this bizarre and untamed planet - if it didn't kill them first!" 7. Reunion - 342 pp 2002 1st printing ISBN 0345418689. "Usiing his enhanced empathic abilities Flinx finesses his way into a top-secret security installation on Earth. Once there he bamboozles a sophisticated AI program into releasing classified information about the Meliorare Society the sect of renegade eugenicists whose experiments with human beings had horrified the civilized universe more than twenty years ago. After all as one of the few Meliorare experiments to survive Flinx has a right to know about his past. Especially since his telepathic powers seem to be evolving. The question is evolving into what The excruciating headaches afflicting Flinx with increasing frequency make him wonder if he will be alive to find out." Interiors - most books have light to moderate browning to inside of covers most books have minor to very light browning to pages otherwise clean and tight with no previous ownership marks. Exteriors - two books with some tiny corner creases one book with one 1" corner crease four books with some light spines creases one book with light sun fading to spine colour three books with light spine lean and one with very light spine lean all books have very light edge wear very light browning to some edges of text blocks.

INTO THE GREEN.
New York: TOR 1993. 254 pp 8 1/2" H. "The harp was a gift from Jacky Lantern's fey kin as was the music Angharad pulled from its strings. She used it in her journeys through the kingdoms of the Green Isles to wake the Summerblood where it lay sleeping in folk who had never known they were witches. This was the way the Middle Kingdom survived - by being remembered by its small magics being served by the interchange of wisdom and gossip between man and those he shared the world with - the birds the bests the hills the trees. Harping she knew was one third of a bard's spells. Harping and poetry and the road that led into the green - ." Slight lean to spine bump at top of spine minor bump at bottom of spine.
