BY SCHISM RENT ASUNDER. New York: Tor, [2008]. Octavo, boards. First edition. Second volume in the Safehold series, preceded by OFF ARMAGEDDON REEF. "The Safehold sequence, beginning with OFF ARMAGEDDON REEF (2007) and ending (to date) with MIDST TOIL AND TRIBULATION (2012) intriguingly places the remnants of humanity -- after a devastating war with much=superior Aliens -- on the planet Safehold, where a society built strictly in terms of medieval futurism hides from the technology-detecting probes of the enemy; centuries pass, societal shibboleths and paranoias dominate, and the sequence stands in late 2012 only at the beginnings of an industrial revolution: but the enemy is patient." - SFE (online). A fine copy in fine dust jacket. (#154094).
Price: $25.00
