The Dead Zone
By Stephen King
First UK edition, first impression. Nominated for the 1980 Locus Award and the first of the author's stories to be set in the fictional town of Castle Rock.
Original black cloth with lettering to spine in gilt and white endpapers and paste-downs. Some spotting to top edge, a couple of minor knocks to corners and a little rubbing to top edge of boards, otherwise very good indeed.
The price-clipped dust jacket has some moderate edge wear and fading to spine panel with a minuscule nick to bottom edge and some spotting to verso, primarily to top edge, else very good. A rare edition.

The Mars Trilogy: Red Mars, Green Mars, Blue Mars

The Mars Trilogy
By Kim Stanley Robinson
A set of first editions, first impressions of the three books comprising 'The Mars Trilogy'. 'Red Mars' received the BSFA Award in 1992 and the Nebula Award for Best Novel in 1993. 'Green Mars' won the Hugo Award for Best Novel and the Locus Award for Best Science Fiction Novel in 1994, and 'Blue Mars' was given the Hugo and Locus Awards in 1997.
'The Mars Trilogy' explores humanity's ambitious project to terraform Mars. Spanning nearly two centuries, the series contrasts a utopian vision of Martian society marked by egalitarianism and scientific innovation with a dystopian Earth grappling with overpopulation and environmental collapse.
Publisher's original cloth. Some toning to edges of 'Blue Mars' with a few faint spots to the top edge of 'Green Mars', else near fine. A little edge wear to the bottom edge of the original and unclipped dust jackets, with a very small nick to the bottom edge of 'Red Mars', otherwise near fine.
