The Book of the New Sun - Gene Wolfe - Folio Society - 1st PRINTING

Description: The Book of the New Sun by Gene Wolfe - A Folio Society 1st Printing This set is brand new and has never been read. There is no damage and no odors. We stored the set lying down flat, not standing in order to keep the binding and pages from sagging. The books have been sealed in archival magazine bags since purchased in 2021. These are thick plastic bags for added protection and safe keeping during shipping & handling. The set contains 4 books in two volumes: The Shadow of the Torturer, The Claw of the Conciliator, The Sword of the Lictor, and The Citadel of the Autarch. It is a novel in four parts written (1980–83) by science fiction and fantasy author Gene Wolfe. The story chronicles the journey and ascent to power of Severian, a disgraced journeyman torturer who rises to the position of Autarch, the one ruler of the free world. Severian, who claims that he has perfect memory, tells the story in first person; the books are presented by Wolfe as a translation of Severian's writings into contemporary English.
