Mass-market paperback. Glued binding. [8], 246, [2] p. This is the second of the Giants series. From Wikipedia: "James Patrick Hogan (27 June 1941 12 July 2010) was a British science fiction author. He published his first novel, Inherit the Stars, in 1977 to win an office bet. Most of Hogan's fiction is hard science fiction. Hogan's fiction also reflects anti-authoritarian social views and as such forms part of anarchist science fiction. Many of his novels have strong anarchist or libertarian themes, often promoting the idea that new technological advances render certain social conventions obsolete. For example, the effectively limitless availability of energy that would result from the development of controlled nuclear fusion would make it unnecessary to limit access to energy resources. In essence, energy would become free. Some of his stories feature concepts of civil disobedience, post scarcity and gift economy." Good. Signed by author. Inscribed inside front cover. Cover has some wear and soiling. Some page discoloration First edition. First edition [stated[. Presumed first printing. Van Dongen, H. R. (Cover art) (illustrator).…
