New York:: Scribner,, (2018). Very near fine in a like dustjacket (remainder line). First printing. Kushner's third novel (both of her first two novels were nominated for the National Book Award). It's 2003 and Romy Hall is at the start of two consecutive life sentences at Stanville Women's Correctional Facility, deep in California's Central Valley. Outside is the world from which she has been severed: the San Francisco of her youth and her young son, Jackson. Inside is a new reality: thousands of women hustling for the bare essentials needed to survive; the bluffing and pageantry and casual acts of violence by guards and prisoners alike; and the deadpan absurdities of institutional living" Shortlisted for the 2018 Man Booker Prize, a New York Times Notable Book and winner of the 2018 Prix MŽdicis ƒtrange. A novel about "a life gone off the rails in contemporary America. 336 pp., Scribner, 4, Tor Books. Used; Good. Hardcover Tor Books, 2002. Book Condition: Good. Jacket Condition: Fair. 1" V shaped closed tear on back of dust jacket<br />Signed on title page by Steven Brust here at Fleur Fine Books on February 18, 2017 during his Author Meet & Greet Event with us.<br />The long-awaited sequel to The Phoenix Guards and Five Hundred Years After<br /><br />Two hundred years after Adron's Disaster, in which Dragaera City was accidentally reduced to an ocean of chaos by an experiment in wizardry gone wrong, the Empire isn't what it used to be. Deprived at a single blow of their Emperor, of the Orb that is the focus of the Empire's power, of their capital city with its Impe-rial bureaucracy, and of a great many of their late fellow citizens, the surviving Dragaerans have been limping through a long Interregnum, bereft even of the simple magic and sorcery they were accustomed to use in everyday life.<br /><br />Now the descendants and successors of the great ad-venturers Khaavren, Pel, Aerich, and Tazendra are growing up in this seemingly diminished world, con-vinced, like their elders, that the age of adventures is over and nothing interesting will ever happen to them. They are, of course, wrong . . . .<br /><br />For even deprived of magic, Dragaerans fight, plot, and conspire as they breathe, and so do their still-powerful gods. The enemies of the Empire prowl at its edges, in-scrutable doings are up at Dzur Mountain...and, unex-pectedly, a surviving Phoenix Heir, young Zerika, is discovered - setting off a chain of swashbuckling events that will remake the world yet again.<br /> . 2002.
