Science Fiction 32 – Jack Vance

I’m drawing towards the end of my Science Fiction collection, now that I’m up to V.

And who better to start the V authors, than the wonderful Jack Vance.

Though I have only a small collection of Vance books, I recall reading them with pleasure.

There is a recent profile of Jack Vance on the New York Times site and it is well worth reading. (You’ll have to register to view it).

My collection of Vance is meagre - I’ve only got two books in the Dying Earth series, and the fantasy trilogy Lyonesse.
