Beschreibung

Head of Zeus, UK. 2019. First English language edition. 339 pages. Published simultaneously by Head of Zeus, UK and by Tor in the USA. First published in China in 2011. Hailed as an unnumbered 'limited' edition on the tipped-in signature page. A delusion of grandeur, a condition shared by other trade editions laying claim to 'limited' status by virtue of lutinted page edges (!!!) or the author's signature accompanied by a handwritten number on what is in every meaningful respect the trade edition. or, indeed, if the book received a pitying glance and was coughed upon by a passing genre C-lister. What is often touted fs a a limited edition nowadays beggars belief. SIGNED BY AUTHOR BAOSHU AND TRANSLATOR KEN LIU). This is a fine copy with razor-sharp, immaculate blue boards, a tight, fine spine with narrow, minimal softening at the head, snow-white pages and a fine dust-jacket. "The milestone of Chinese sf" (New York Times). "SF in the grand style, a galaxy-spanning, ideas-rich narrative" (The Guardian).
