$28.00
1976 The Deep, John Crowley, Paperback. Measures about 7" by 4". 186 pages. Good condition.
This is a preserved 1976 Berkley Medallion edition of John Crowley’s debut novel, The Deep. A foundational work of speculative fiction, the story follows a mysterious, nameless "Visitor" who falls from the sky into a medieval world locked in a perpetual civil war between two factions known as the Reds and the Blacks.
Often compared to the political intrigue of A Song of Ice and Fire, this novel explores a world built on a pillar over a vast abyss, blending elements of high fantasy with hard science fiction. This specific paperback edition features striking cover art that captures the eerie, somber mood of Crowley's "flat-earth" world. It contains 186 pages and stands as a must-have for collectors of 1970s science fiction and fans of literary speculative prose.
