Book and priced (18.95) dust jacket are in near fine condition. Book is unmarked except for a sticker on the FFE. Red Orc's Rage is a striking and original novel that creates a tension between realism and the fantastic which will give serious reader food for thought and give the pulp fiction reader constant injections of excitement and entertainment. Farmer writes with energy, clarity and conviction, and leaves it ambiguous as to whether this is a psychological fantasy novel, or a literal fantasy. Big fun for fantasy reader and collectors.
