New from Norilana - DELUSION'S MASTER by Tanith Lee
FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE
Norilana Books is proud to present the definitive hardcover and trade paperback reissue of a Tanith Lee classic!
Delusion's Master by Tanith Lee is the third book of the stunning arabesque high fantasy series Tales from the Flat Earth, which, in the manner of The One Thousand and One Nights, portrays an ancient world in mythic grandeur via connected tales.
Long before Vera Nazarian's Dreams of the Compass Rose or Catherynne M. Valente's The Orphan's Tales, beloved British author Tanith Lee created the first truly complete, modern and sophisticated fantasy version of the Arabian Nights, and spun wondrous stories within stories, unparalleled profound tales of arcane mystery, dark love, and bright desire.
"Love me and you, even you, will tell no difference between illusion and reality, for in this case they are one."
- from Delusion's Master
At last, these are the definitive editions, revised and formatted as the author originally intended, containing a new original introduction by Tanith Lee, and a unique previously unpublished interior illustration by the author herself. The cover image is a design by Tanith Lee's husband and artist John Kaiine, incorporating more of her own artwork in the center frame, which makes it a fan and collector's delight.
Delusion's Master by Tanith Lee
Long time ago when the Earth was Flat, beautiful indifferent Gods lived in the airy Upperearth realm above, curious passionate demons lived in the exotic Underearth realm below, and mortals were relegated to exist in the middle. Chuz, Prince Madness, third of the Lords of Darkness - beauty on one side, foul corruption on the other - "takes pity" on the world. In his gentle soft embrace mortal minds repose in a tide of illusion and twisted desire. Yet no one is immune from the sweetest madness of all, and even immortals fall at the cast of the bone dice...
Come within this ancient world of brilliant darkness and beauty, of glittering palaces and wondrous elegant beings, of cruel passions and undying love.
Discover the exotic wonder that is the Flat Earth.
Tanith Lee is the author of 77 novels, 14 collections, and over 300 short stories, plus 4 radio plays (broadcast by the BBC) and 2 scripts for the TV cult UK SF series Blake's 7. Her work, which has been translated into over 17 languages, ranges through fantasy, SF, gothic, YA and children's books, contemporary, historical and detective novels, and horror. She was awarded the prestigious title of Grand Master of Horror 2009. Major awards include the August Derleth Award for Death's Master, the second book in the Flat Earth series.
