In the dim far future of Earth, when the sun had shrunk to a small red disk in the dark sky and the race of man lived in isolated cities that echoed with the vastness of the world's history, science, myth and magic had become one. Sorcerors who read the books of ancient times held great power, and fearsome monsters created in ages long forgotten stalked the land. In this world of mystery and danger, the adventurer known as Cugel the Clever was forced to undertake a quest for Iucounu the Laughing Magician - a quest that was to take him to lands stranger than any he had dreamed of, and pit his wits and his sword against powers from beyond time itself. Previously published as The Eyes of the Overworld, this is the second of a quartet of titles sharing the same far-future setting first introduced in The Dying Earth Contents: The Overworld, Cil, The Mountains of Magnatz, The Sorcerer Pharesm, The Pilgrims, The Cave in the Forest, The Manse of Iucounu. All Jack Vance titles in the SFGateway use the author's preferred texts, as restored for the Vance Integral Edition (VIE), an extensive project masterminded by an international online community of Vance's admirers. In general, we also use the VIE titles, and have adopted the arrangement of short story collections to eliminate overlaps.

Pauvre Cugel ! Alors qu'il pensait tenir sa revanche sur Iucounu, le Magicien Rieur, le voilà renvoyé de l'autre côté de l'océan des Soupirs. Pour retourner en Almery et enfin se venger, Cugel se lance donc dans un nouveau périple foisonnant de dangers et de créatures farfelues... Encore une fois, il lui faut user de stratagèmes et de cette diplomatie sans scrupule qui lui ont tant de fois permis de se sortir de situations compromettantes... Mais si la chance sourit aux audacieux, il semble bien que le pire menace toujours les filous. Et l'atout dont il dispose, cet objet magique et puissant qu'Iucounu convoite par-dessus tout, ne sera sans doute pas de trop pour l'aider à triompher de son perfide ennemi...

Jack Vance is one of the most remarkable talents to ever grace the world of science fiction. His unique, stylish voice has been beloved by generations of readers. One of his enduring classics is his Mazirian the Magician (previously titled The Dying Earth), and its sequels--a fascinating, baroque tale set on a far-future Earth, under a giant red sun that is soon to go out forever. In Cugel: the Skybreak Spatterlight , Cugel the Clever is still seeking revenge on the magician Iucounu, whom he blames for his exile and all his troubles. But revenge is hard to come by, and the adventures on the way are so very diverting....

Rhialto the Marvellous takes up the personal and political conflicts among a conclave of two dozen magicians of Ascolais and Almery in the 21st Aeon. The shocking appearance of the Llorio the Murtha, a powerful female force from an earlier aeon threatens to unbalance nature by "ensqualming" or feminizing the magicians. This triggers a tremendous struggle for power and the other mages turn against Rhialto. Hoping to reestablish his rightful place, Rhialto travels to other aeons to restore the missing Perciplex which projects the Mostrament, the constitution of the association. In his final adventure, Rhialto must, ultimately, travel to the very ends of time and space to confront an old adversary whom he had wronged and must commit further misdeeds to restore order.

Cugel, voleur sans scrupule et beau parleur, commet un jour l'erreur de vouloir dérober de précieux objets à Iucounu, le Magicien Rieur. Mais ce dernier, qui n'a de rieur que le nom, décide d'une punition exemplaire : Cugel se verra envoyé aux confins du monde pour y retrouver une lentille de verre violette. Et pour s'assurer qu'il mènera sa mission à bien, Iucounu incruste par magie dans son ventre une créature qui lui rendra compte de sa loyauté. Pour se sortir de ce mauvais pas, Cugel ne pourra compter que sur ses maigres réserves de courage et surtout sur son inépuisable aptitude à mentir effrontément... mais avec talent ! Remarquable roman qui mêle heroic-fantasy et humour, Cugel l'Astucieux est l'un des chefs-d'œuvre de Jack Vance.
