The Forever War
Signed
London: Weidenfeld and Nicolson, 1975. First UK edition. Hardcover in an unclipped jacket (£3.50). Octave. Blue cloth boards with gilt titles on the spine. Signed by the author on the title page. First British edition published a year after the American edition.
A military science fiction classic that won the Nebula Award in 1975, and both the Hugo and Locus Awards in 1976. Described by William Gibson thusly: “To say that The Forever War is the best science fiction war novel ever written is to damn it with faint praise. It is, for all its techno-extrapolative brilliance, as fine and woundingly genuine a war story as any I've read.”
A beautiful copy to ornament your science fiction fantasy collection. This book is from the library of Colorado collector Mark Harms and previously from well known Oklahoma book collector, Larry Owens.
Near fine. Almost imperceptible fading to top edges of cloth boards. Bottom right corner bumped. / Near fine. The jacket had mild toning to the back cover and is protected in a mylar cover. Item #89
