Item #30179 IVORY. Mike Resnick.

IVORY.

New York: Tor, [1988]. Octavo, boards. First edition. Tale of the future set in Africa. "A member of the Masai tribe and his computer-whiz friend attempt to track down the missing tusks of the legendary Kilimanjaro Elephant. The story is told episodically, against a background of both near and medium-far future. An unusual choice of subject matter, and an engaging narrative by a clever writer (who emerged to major status in the SF field after writing literally hundreds of pseudonymous hack novels)." - Pringle, The Ultimate Guide to Science Fiction, second edition (1995), p. 193. "... an intelligent tale that treats African culture with considerable respect." - Anatomy of Wonder (2004) II-899. 1989 Nebula nominee. [Reference: Anatomy of Wonder (2004) II-899]. A fine copy in fine dust jacket. (30179). Item #30179
