Book club edition. A book club edition produced from the publisher's bound sheets with the statement "First American edition 1980" to the copyright page, BUT bearing the book club small leaf indentation to the inside corner of the rear cover, and lacking a printed price to the dust jacket flap. Illustrated throughout with fascinating and evocative scenes by Pauline Ellison, who is most famous for her art in numerous Ursula Le Guin books, and for her art in TEA WITH THE BLACK DRAGON. A medieval dark fantasy where plans and plots, to overcome the evil Lord who reigns dark magic and terror, create a marvelous tale. Nearly fine in black linen over green boards with silver embossed titles to the spine; in a near fine dust jacket with color front panel art and black-and-white rear panel art by Pauline Ellison, with a touch of fading to the spine panel and with two, half-inch tears to the upper edge of the rear panel. No remainder mark.
