A FALL OF MOONDUST.
London: Victor Gollancz Ltd, 1961. Octavo, boards. First British edition. The U.S. edition preceded by a few days. "A sightseeing vehicle, packed with tourists, sinks into a sea of dust on the Moon's surface. The subsequent struggle for survival is tensely described, with fascinating scientific details. Not one of Clarke's 'visionary' novels, but probably the best of his works of near-future realism." - Pringle, The Ultimate Guide to Science Fiction, second edition (1995), p. 129. Anatomy of Wonder (1987) 3-101. A age darkening to text block, a nearly fine copy in a very good dust jacket with age darkening to the edges and spine panel, some soiling to the rear panel. (28647).
