Lakewood, CO, Centipede Press, 2009. Limited Edition. Hardback. A fine copy. 175 of 300 copies published. Introduction by Kim Stanley Robinson, and signed by the author and Robinson. Brunner had passed 15 years earlier, but some signed sheets from a prior book were made available for this production. An excellent production. A couple of marks to the block edges, but largely in excellent shape. John Brunner (1934-1995) was a British writer focussing on general space operas in his early career but hitting his literary style with Stand on Zanzibar in 1968. As with many sf writers of the era he's seen as somewhat prescient in retrospect, but his claim to fame is probably using the word 'worm' to apply to a computer virus. Illustrations by Jacob McMurray [11730, Hyraxia Books].
