RINGWORLD

First UK edition, first printing (and first hardcover edition). Publisher's original burgundy cloth with gilt titles to the spine, in dustwrapper. An excellent near fine copy, the binding square and firm with a little bumping to the spine tips, the cloth and gilt bright and fresh. The contents with a little offsetting to the endpapers, are otherwise clean throughout and without inscriptions or stamps. Complete with the lightly rubbed and creased dustwrapper that is without fading, loss or tears. Not price-clipped (£1.90 net to the lower front flap).

First published in America as a paperback original by Ballantine Books in 1970. The first novel in the Ringworld [Fleet of Worlds] series and winner of the 1971 Hugo, Nebula and Locus Awards.
