First Edition, Publishers' Original Binding, Uncommon, With Dustwrapper
This three volume set collects three fantastical works of science fiction from celebrated author and poet Roger Zelazny, bringing together UK first editions of 'Jack of Shadows', a 1972 Hugo Award nominee that plays tribute to the exotic landscapes of Jack Vance, and 'Today We Choose Faces', which follows a Mafia assassin awoken from suspended animation, alongside a special Science Fiction Book Club publication of 'The Doors of His Face, The Lamps of His Mouth and other Stories', a collection of short stories including the titular story that won the 1965 Nebula Award for Best Novelette. Zelazny won the Nebula Award a total of three times, the Hugo Award six times, and has inspired generations of writers, including Neil Gaiman.
