zlib_text: “This extraordinary fantasist is still an active writer and a sly one,
  much given to surprise.”—ROBERT SILVERBERG
  “Vance is eventually going to be perceived as one of the foundation
  blocks of the edifice that is science fiction.” —BARRY MALZBERG
  “Vance knows about childhood, grief, love, social structure, idealism
  and loss . .    —JOANNA RUSS
  . . perhaps the premier stylist in the science fiction genre. No science
  fiction writer does it with the Roman luxuriousness and razor-edge control
  of Jack Vance.” —NORMAN SPINRAD
  “One of the most thoroughly entertaining of all modern fantasy and
  science fiction writers.”—LIN CARTER
