Description
First Edition, Publishers' Original Binding, Uncommon, With Dustwrapper
This first UK edition of acclaimed science fiction authors Frederik Pohl and Jack Williamson's 'Starchild' continues the story from their 'The Reefs of Space', which tells of a future society ruled by a brutal totalitarian government as they battle against a rebellion supported by the enigmatic, God-like Starchild. Pohl and Williamson were celebrated writers together and apart, with Pohl's 'Gateway' winning the Hugo, Locus, Nebula, and John W. Campbell Memorial awards in 1977, and Williamson frequently referred to as 'the Dean of Science Fiction'. First UK edition, in unclipped dustwrapper. An extraordinary novel, Pohl and Williamson showcase pure science fiction at its unadulterated best in 'Starchild'.
