First edition, first impression. The first book in The Chronicles of Narnia series, illustrated by Pauline Baynes.
Original green cloth with silver lettering to spine. Some of the often-encountered ghosting to boards. Gift and previous owner inscriptions to front endpaper, slight spine slant, otherwise very good.
The unclipped dust jacket - which is frequently found heavily restored - is completely original with no restoration. Some losses, primarily to upper panel. A few chips and tears to edges with some browning to verso.

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.
