hardcover. Zustand: Good. Our good condition books are generally good for reading but not for gifting or collecting. They could have imperfections such as creasing, fanning, inscriptions, margin notes, yellowing, staining on edge or cover or pages, bumps, scuffs, etc etc (sometimes multiple of these). It's a wide category that encompasses anything that isn't almost-new down to anything that is slightly better than poor.

We list via barcode/ISBN so please note that the images are stock images and may not be the exact copy you receive, furthermore the details about edition and year might not be accurate as many publishers reuse the same ISBN for multiple editions and as we simply scan a barcode or enter an ISBN we do not check the validity of the edition data when listing. If you're looking for an exact edition please don't order (at least not without checking with us first, although we don't always have time to check). We aim to dispatch prompty, the service used will depend on order value and book size. We can ship to most countries, see our shipping policies. Payment is via Abe only.

Hardcover. Zustand: Very good. Zustand des Schutzumschlags: Very good. [6], 406, [4] pages. Author's inscription on the title page. Inscription reads To Mike and Joe Best, Christopher Rice. The author is the son of Anne Rice and poet Stan Rice. Christopher Rice became a publishing sensation overnight with his first novel, A Density of Souls. The wide-ranging coverage included appearances on The Rosie O'Donnell Show, MTV's Real World, and The Early Show, print features from USA Today to The Advocate, and a website with e-mails from fans. The Snow Garden, is a story of murder and sexual menace on a university campus. When a respected professors wife drives to her death in an icy river, an illicit relationship between a student and his teacher threatens to come to light, and within days Atherton University is the scene of escalating speculation and intrigue. Another death emerges from the shadows, and the connections between the two accidents begin to look uncomfortably close. Christopher Rice explores the dynamic within a tightly knit group of young people haunted by sexual memories and fears and driven by obscure desires. The Snow Garden casts this web of friendship and passion against the backdrop of a threat that grows darker as the novel proceeds. Electrifying in its intensity, with a plot that accelerates with every page, The Snow Garden is an unforgettable read--a psychological thriller and a modern horror story that probes the terrible weight of the past on the present and the corrosive power of secrets. Rice proved himself to be a remarkable talent with the best-selling A Density of Souls. His stunning new novel will establish him as a master of his craft. Christopher Travis Rice (born March 11, 1978) is an American author. Rice has written novels including A Density of Souls, The Snow Garden, Light Before Day, Blind Fall, The Moonlit Earth, The Heavens Rise, The Vines as well as the novels in his Burning Girl series. His work spans multiple genres, including suspense, crime, supernatural thriller, and erotic romance. With his mother Anne Rice he also co-authored the historical horror novel Ramses the Damned: The Passion of Cleopatra. His second novel, The Snow Garden received a Lambda Literary Award for Best Gay Men's Mystery. For many years, Rice wrote a regular column for the LGBT-related biweekly news magazine The Advocate called "Coastal Disturbances," in which he discussed various topics. Derived from a Publishers Weekly article: Life imitates art imitates late-night cable TV in Rice's second college gothic novel. Set in the histrionic, pansexual pharmacopoeia that is freshman year at fictional Atherton University, it follows the secret dramas of Kathryn, a San Francisco waif on the run from dark sexual secrets back home; her black, militant lesbian roommate, April; her best friend, Randall, a mysterious, gay, Gucci-clad prince; his roommate, Jesse, an enigmatic and apparently irresistible sex god; Tim, gay muckraker for the campus paper; and Dr. Eric Eberman, an art history professor with a theory about Hieronymus Bosch which, the author seems to suggest, has something to do with the plot. Eberman is sleeping with Randall, and the news of his wife's sudden demise makes for a panicky recall of events of nearly 20 years ago. Randall, having just broken up with Tim, is finding it harder and harder to resist Jesse's mysterious magnetism, but in order to find out whether Eric is a murderer, starts sleeping with Tim again to probe Eric's past. Kathryn finds herself drawn to one of Eric's misfit grad students, and April makes an observation about Kathryn that might well be applied to the author himself: ". you like drama. Epic, who-shot-JR drama." A decent gay-themed mystery. First Edition [Stated], First Printing [Stated].
