This is a collection of Tim Powers' short fiction. Though mostly
known for his novels, Powers has written some really good and hard
to get short stories. These tales explore the same kind of territory
normally found in his novels -- in these pages you'll find the wildly
inventive plots, the fascinating characters, and the vivid intrusion
of the supernatural into the real world , that have earned Powers
an enthusiastic readership in a dozen countries.
Contents:
Introduction by James P. Blaylock

Bibliography of the works of Tim Powers
This is the only edition currently under contract.
This
special lettered edition is traycased and includes an extra Power's
hardcover first edition hardcover lettered to match this book and
also signed by the author. This is the first and only known printing
of 10 Poems. Only 100 copies have been produced and this is the
only way to get the lettered state. The other copies are going into
private distribution and will be very hard to get, if at all possible.
CLARKESWORLD COMMENTS
We are very lucky to have been able to secure this edition of this
book. It sold out in within 24 hours of its announcement. A must
have for the serious Powers collector!
An enthusiastic thumbs up! Tim Powers is one of my personal favorites,
which probably explains why I have so many of his titles available
here. Can't afford this copy? There is also a signed
numbered edition that costs much less!
