151 pages. Artist Robin Wood met Anne McCaffrey at the first totally Pern-oriented convention in the U.S. in 1984. However, prior to that, Robin had designed and executed portraits of Pern characters for the Mayfair Games board game, Dragonriders of Pern. In the ensuing conversation about what the characters from the Pern books really looked like, this book was conceived. Four years of work followed, with Robin and Anne comparing notes at conventions, discussing details of Pern and its people, passing letters and sketches across the Atlantic and arriving at mutually satisfactory conclusions. This represents the first, authentic look at the people of Pern, a collaboration of the finest kind between two of the finest artists available today. Very attractively illustrated glossy dust jacket in wonderful condition with minimal signs of rubbing at top and bottom edges and 3/4" tear to top of back panel. Book could pass as new. A superior copy of this enchanting work. Book

365 pages. A public health inspector spends twenty-five frustrating years trying to be of service to his community (Victoria, British Columbia). At fifty he resigns and goes in search of a more satisfying life. He finds it in tropical Northern Queensland. This is his story. It is a novel and an anthology. Essays, verses, short fiction, travel, observations, character sketches. It is the compellingly written, informative, enlightening, thought-provoking, always entertaining experience of a man with intelligence, wit, and humour. The reader will find that she/he is seeing himself and his own community, because this book is not just about a small Canadian city or one corner of the sunny South Pacific. Nor is it just about one man's escape from a frustrating job. It is a forthright assessment of a society in trouble by a man who has a wider view because he deliberately stepped outside.
