Présentation de l'éditeur
Five intergalactic criminal masterminds raid the tranquil world of Mount Pleasant, leaving behind only ruin and slaughter – and the orphaned child Kirth Gersen, who comes to manhood swearing to take bloody revenge. Now Gersen roams the galaxy, bringing vengeance to the Demon Princes one by one, in Jack Vance's classic series of hardboiled space opera.
The fourth Demon Prince, Lens Larque, combines murderous criminality with a taste for horrific practical jokes. Escaping Gersen once, Larque flees to his home world of Dar Sai, known for its strange mating rituals and the violent winner-take-all game of hadaul. Gersen follows his quarry to the milder world of Methel, where Larque plans a revengeful prank on a wealthy man. Gersen has a more final vengeance in mind. – Matt Hughes
The Face is Book IV of the Demon Prince series, and Volume 41 of the Spatterlight Press Signature Series. Released in the centenary of the author's birth, this handsome new collection is based upon the prestigious Vance Integral Edition. Select volumes enjoy up-to-date maps, and many are graced with freshly-written forewords contributed by a distinguished group of authors. Each book bears a facsimile of the author's signature and a previously-unpublished photograph, chosen from family archives for the period the book was written. These unique features will be appreciated by all, from seasoned Vance collector to new reader sampling the spectrum of this author's influential work for the first time. – John Vance II

There were now just two left. The Demon Prince named Lens Larque was the one who next crossed Gersen's path. As each of the 5 planet-slayers different from one another; so too was Lens Larque. He was personally ugly, he came from a planet with an appallingly vicious culture, and he was arrogant above all others. N° de réf. du vendeur 0129F783117

Soft cover. Etat : Very Good. Later pr. SIGNED by AUTHOR on the title page. Book is square, solid, and unread. In protective archival bag. Once this treasured tome from Tanjecterly has arrived at your stately manse of Trilda, youll retire to the parlor and a light repast of wine and cheese, melon and water fowl, before focusing your attention on its many and varied excellences, composed, as it is, of sandestin stuff hopefully Grofinet wont choose this moment for a spontaneous lecture on the Egyptian pyramids! NOTE: VERY light evidence of edgewear and age-toning. Also, this is sort of hard to describe, but the bottom end of the book was bumped at some point, but it doesn't affect the way the spine looks, it affects the way the back of the cover looks near the spine, but only the cover, and not the pages.
