Fantascienza - romanzo (130 pagine) - Dal grande Jack Vance, per la prima volta in italiano, una storia paranoica e terrificante nello stile di "Ai confini della realtà" Sul pianeta Ixax la guerra si è appena conclusa, ed è stata un immane disastro. La superficie è ridotta a cumuli di rovine e quel poco che resta della popolazione vive in città sotterranee. Ma non è finita, ora resta la sfida più grande: affrontare i veri nemici, gli esseri sfuggenti e incomprensibili chiamati Nopal, attaccandoli sul loro stesso pianeta d'origine, Nopalgarth. Ma è una battaglia che gli abitanti di Ixax non possono combattere direttamente: qualcun altro dovrà farlo per loro, un alieno proveniente da quel pianeta che la sua specie chiama Terra. Jack Vance (1916-2013) è stato uno dei più grandi autori di fantascienza e fantasy, e certamente tra i più amati dal pubblico. Dopo una serie di lavori di ogni genere, durante la Seconda guerra mondiale si arruola nella marina mercantile e gira il mondo. In questo periodo comincia a scrivere il ciclo della Terra Morente. Tra gli Anni cinquanta e settanta viaggia, in Europa e nel resto del mondo, traendo da queste esperienze esotiche gli spunti per i suoi romanzi: Il pianeta gigante, I linguaggi di Pao, il ciclo di Durdane. Nella sua carriera ha scritto decine di romanzi di fantascienza, fantasy e gialli, per un totale di oltre sessanta libri; tra i titoli più famosi ricordiamo i cicli di Tschai, di Lyonesse, dei Principi demoni, di Alastor. Storie ricche di fascino, di personaggi indimenticabili, narrate con uno stile elegante e immaginifico. Delos Digital in collaborazione con Spatterlight si è data l'impegno di riportare sul mercato le opere di questo grande autore.

The inhabitants of a planet called Iszm, a species known as the Iszic, have evolved the native giant trees into living homes, with all needs and various luxuries supplied by the trees' own natural growth. The Iszic maintain a jealously-guarded monopoly, exporting only enough trees to keep prices high and make a great profit. The protagonist, Ailie Farr, is a human botanist who goes to Iszm (like many others before him, of many species) to steal a female tree, which might allow the propagation of the species off world and break the monopoly. This volume includes two short novels, previously published separately - the title story, and Nopalgarth (published as The Brains of Earth). The collection is rounded out by two of his best shorter works - "The Gift of Gab" and "The Narrow Land". "The Narrow Land" was the first of a proposed story sequence which was never completed. Contents: The Houses of Iszm, The Gift of Gab, Nopalgarth (The Brains of Earth), The Narrow Land 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.
