The Disestablishment of Paradise

Gollancz 2013 Paperback, 528pp. Something has gone wrong on the planet of Paradise.The human settlers, farmers and scientists are finding that their crops won't grow and their lives are becoming more and more dangerous. The indigenous plant life, never entirely safe, is changing in unpredictable ways, and the imported plantings wither and die. And so the order is given, Paradise will be abandoned. All personnel will be removed and reassigned. And all human presence on the planet will be disestablished. Not all agree with the decision. There are some who believe that Paradise has more to offer the human race. That the planet is not finished with the intruders, and that the risks of staying are outweighed by the possible rewards. And so the leader of the research team and one of the demolition workers set off on a journey across the planet. Along the way they will encounter the last of the near-mythical Dendron, the vicious Reapers, and the deadly Tattersall Weeds as they embark on an adventure which will bring them closer to nature, to each other and, eventually, to Paradise. Heavy. Some foxing on text block edge; spine creased. (ISBN: 9780575132627). Good.

The Fall of the Families Part Two of the Story of the Gardener

London, England: Victor Gollancz Ltd, 1987. 1st Edition; 1st Printing. Hardcover. This book is in Near Fine condition and has a Fine dust jacket. The book and its contents are in clean, bright condition. The text pages are mostly clean and bright. There is one small spot of discoloration on the dedication page. The dust jacket is crisp and clean. "The story of The Master of Paxwax, Mann's second book, centers around the life of Pawl Paxwax. Pawl – and his name is significant – is the second son of the Fifth Family in a galaxy-wide empire ruled by Eleven Great Families. These Families have for centuries enslaved non-human life forms by a policy of alien genocide. Now things are changing. Beneath the surface of the seemingly dead world of Sanctum, surviving intelligent aliens are gathering, united in their desire to strike back at the barbarous society that had laid waste their civilisations. When Pawl's father and brother die in quick succession, Pawl finds himself thrust into a position of supreme power, unaware that the alien races have decided to revolt and intend to use him and his lover, Laurel Beltane, as pawns to defeat the other ruling families. Pawl is a poet, and non-political in nature, but his enmity, once roused, is to be feared. "Wonderfully imaginative" said Locus. "High-class space opera with a welter of convincing aliens," sang White Dwarf." (from Wikipedia). Near Fine in Fine dust jacket .
