Del Ray, 1982. First edition, first printing. Paperback. Good condition. "The Elfin Ship" is a fantasy novel by American author James P. Blaylock, first published in 1982. It is the first book in the "Balumnia" trilogy, which also includes "The Disappearing Dwarf" and "The Stone Giant." Set in a whimsical and richly detailed fantasy world, the story follows the adventures of Jonathan Bing, a cheesemaker from the village of Twombly Town. Jonathan embarks on a journey aboard the Elfin Ship to deliver a shipment of cheese and to investigate why winter seems to be lingering longer than usual. Accompanying him are Professor Wurzle, a scholar with a fondness for the arcane, and the eccentric and enigmatic elf named Twickenham. Throughout their journey, they encounter various magical creatures, face numerous challenges, and uncover a plot that threatens their world. The novel is known for its charming prose, imaginative settings, and blend of humor and adventure. Blaylock's writing style is often compared to that of J.R.R. Tolkien and Kenneth Grahame, with a touch of whimsy reminiscent of classic English fantasy literature.
