In this world, silence is 'too innocent', and with every step, you are met with the 'most unpleasant surprise'. It's important not to make a mistake in your choice, as he who laughs last, laughs best. 'Jack Vance has so perfected the trick of creating new worlds that are deceptively real that after a while, your own home seems fictional.' — Jerry Pournelle 'The Dying Earth by Jack Vance is an incredibly beautiful diamond among the treasures of world fantasy literature. A majestic monument, a unique, astonishing thing.' — Fantlab 'A book that was the foundation for the creation of the role-playing game system Dungeons & Dragons.' — Amazon
