Ports of Call
Ports of Call
Myron Tany captains a space yacht owned by his flamboyant great-aunt on an interstellar hunt for a clinic rumored to restore youth.
A disagreement with Dame Hester leaves Myron stranded on a distant planet, and he signs on as crew aboard the tramp freighter Glicca. With Captain Maloof, Chief Steward Wingo, and Engineer Fay Schwatzendale, Myron travels the exotic worlds of the Gaean Reach.
Jack Vance shapes a picaresque tale of adventure, romance, humor, and youth's eternal yearning to see the wonders that lie beyond the horizon.
- Matthew Hughes
Ports of Call is Volume 59 of the Spatterlight Press Signature Series, and the first half of the Ports of Call / Lurulu sequence. Released in the centenary of the author's birth, this handsome new collection is based upon the prestigious Vance Integral Edition. Select volumes enjoy up-to-date maps, and many are graced with freshly-written forewords contributed by a distinguished group of authors. Each book bears a facsimile of the author's signature and a previously-unpublished photograph, chosen from family archives for the period the book was written. These unique features will be appreciated by all, from seasoned Vance collector to new reader sampling the spectrum of this author's influential work for the first time.
