Jacket in new Brodart, a little edge wear, minor chipping at corners. A nice copy. "This is the story of Planet 8 of the Canopean Empire, a prosperous and contented little planet inhabited by handsome, vibrant, intelligent people, as told to us by one of the planet's fifty Representatives. Planet 8 is verdant and peaceful, its well-being secure, its weather consistently nurturing, never harsh. The people live long, fruitful lives, each one assuming a role essential to the continuity of the race. There is no crime, no strife, and no doubt . . . "Until: the time of The Ice begins, the alignments of the planet shift, ice and snow come to cover its surface, and the people are forced to alter their lives in previously unthinkable ways. What keeps them going is the promise made by Canopus that, in time, they will be taken off Planet 8 to Rohanda, the favored planet of the Empire. But when the Canopean ambassador, Johor, finally arrives, the people are hardly surprised that he brings only devastating news. Rohanda is no longer fit to receive them, and they are destined to perish with their planet . . ."; 7¾" - 9¾" Tall.

Fine in a fine dust jacket. Publisher's original price intact on jacket flap ($11.95). Comes with archival-quality mylar dust jacket protector. A tight clean copy. Octavo, 146 pages. The fourth novel in Lessing's "Canopus in Argos: Archives" series, a cycle of speculative fiction exploring civilization, evolution, and interstellar influence across time and space. The five books in the series are: "Shikasta" (1979), "The Marriages Between Zones Three, Four and Five" (1980), "The Sirian Experiments" (1981), "The Making of the Representative for Planet 8" (1982), and "The Sentimental Agents in the Volyen Empire" (1983).
