A magnificent city existing on the fringes of the past, and on the brink of destruction, Viriconium. With a foreword by Neil Gaiman. Available to American readers for the first time, this landmark collection gathers four groundbreaking fantasy classics from the acclaimed author of Light.

Set in the imagined city of Viriconium, here are the masterworks that revolutionized a genre and enthralled a generation of readers: The Pastel CityA Storm of WingsIn Viriconium, and Viriconium Nights. Back in print after a long absence, these singular tales of a timeless realm and its enigmatic inhabitants are now reborn and compiled to captivate a whole new generation. 

“The world that Harrison depicts is intricate and authentic, peopled with a multitude of strange yet lifelike characters — a combination which serves to make his richly imagined empire of Viriconium feel very real indeed. . . . This omnibus collection from the author of Light is canon-reading for those who wish to know the genre's roots, as well as the heights, to which it can aspire.”  -  Kirkus Reviews

“Harrison’s Viriconium sequence is the jewel in the crown of 20th-century fantasy, a work that proves irrefutably that fantastic literature can be Art with a capital A, holding its own alongside the very finest writing of our time, or any other.”  -  Elizabeth Hand, author of Mortal Love 

“M. John Harrison is a true master of English prose. He possesses the eye of a painter, the ear of a bard, and a rigorous and playful intellect. The Viriconium novels and stories are infused with a haunting genius that never falters.” - K.J. Bishop, author of The Etched City
