First edition, first printing. Fine; in a fine illustrated dust jacket. An unread copy! A "science fiction fantasy" from the sometimes infuriatingly impenetrable and slapdash, at times triumphantly lyrical and witty, always utterly original Mr. Lafferty. By the author of the wonderful short story collection NINE HUNDRED GRANDMOTHERS.
