THE SYNDIC

First UK edition, first printing. Publisher's original blue cloth with gilt titles to the spine, in the Dennis Johnson illustrated dustwrapper. A better than very good copy, the binding firm and slightly rolled to the lightly faded spine. The contents, with a little spotting to the top edge of the closed text block, are otherwise clean throughout, and without inscriptions or stamps. Complete with the better than very good, rubbed, nicked, and creased dustwrapper, which is lightly faded to the spine and a little toned to the rear panel and edges. Not price-clipped (18s net to the lower front flap).

A science fiction novel exploring the concept of a mafia state in a North America dystopia. In 1986, 'The Syndic' was inducted into the Prometheus Award Hall of Fame.
