"With Morning Comes Mistfall" was the first story by George R. R. Martin to be nominated for the Hugo and Nebula Awards. It was one of two stories, along with "The Second Kind of Loneliness" that Martin believed would make or break his career as a writer. In "With Morning Comes Mistfall" Martin presents a thematic conundrum: Is a mystery sometimes more useful than the truth? The story takes place on Wraithworld, a barely habitable planet with unusual weather conditions. Each morning in a wonderful phenomenon, the mist comes down from the mountains, revealing the beauty of the planet. This phenomenon is called Mistfall. The planet is home to only a few people, primarily because it is believed that its mist-covered valleys are occupied by "wraiths", creatures that are claimed to have killed a number of humans. The mystery of the wraiths is also the main thing that attract visitors to the place. The only establishment on the planet is Castle Cloud, a hotel mounted on top of one of the mountains. The hotel is visited by wraith hunters, people looking for a thrill. The story tells of an expedition which sets out to find proof of the wraiths' existence, or establish that they are nothing more than a myth. The owner of Castle Cloud fears either answer, as he does not want the mystery of the wraiths to be uncovered. The main theme of the story is a clash between two views of the world, one very logical, pragmatic, physical, and the other one romantic and spiritual. It shows that not all mysteries need to be uncovered, not all secrets revealed, that unknown is not always bad, that it keeps people searching, asking questions, coming back. What is known for certain, is often taken for granted and then loses attraction. Jack Gaughan; John Schoenherr; Kelly Freas; Leo Summers; Gray Morrow (illustratore).…

Mass Market Paperback. Condizione: Very Good-. First Edition. Ace Double #42800; The Bane of Kanthos 124 pp., Kalin 131 pp. This is the first publication for both these novels ("Kalin," # 4 in the Dumarest series, was subsequently reissued several times in other editions). Spine slightly slanted, single reading crease at each hinge, very minor edgewear. Text starting to yellow, but clean and unmarked. A nice copy. The Bane of Kanthos: "Far from the bloody fields of Anzor, high in the Dark Tower of the Masters, the man who was now known as Rocar stood feeling the inky onslaught of the Shadow against his mind. And as he felt the first touch of Darkness, fear came at last to him. But now Rocar fought as he had never before - mentally not physically. The Bane of Kanthos would not conquer him . . . not while a kingdom depended upon him as their sole champion." Kalin: "The strange girl, Kalin, could visualize the terrors that were to come. Dumarest realized her mysterious talent and tried his best to utilize it to stave off those future disasters. Together the two had managed thus to survive Bloodtime on Logis, catastrophe in space, and the specter of enslavement on desolate Chron. But always her image of the future drew closer and always her visions grew chillingly sharper."; 6¾" - 7¾" Tall. Illustrated by Morrow, Gray [cover]; Schoenherr, John [cover] (illustratore). …
