Text and binding are excellent, like new. DJ is very fine. First American edition. After the success of his novel The Restraint of Beasts, author Magnus Mills wrote Three to See the King Three in part as a "project" to prove to himself that he could be a full-time writer. The book was so successful that reviews appeared in The Guardian, The Spectator and The Independent, and it has been translated into both German and French. The nameless narrator lives in an isolated tin house situated on a windswept sandy plain, miles from his nearest neighbors whom he meets infrequently. He is quite happy in his lonely self-sufficiency until unexpectedly a woman comes to live with him. Unsettled at first, the narrator gradually gets used to the companionship. Then news comes of a new community being established on the edge of the plain by a charismatic, yet enigmatic figure who is digging a canyon and gaining more and more followers to his revolutionary cause. One by one, his neighbors join the canyon project, moving their tin houses to the new community as the narrator feels under increasing pressure to join them.
