Buy it. It's cheaper and at least as exotic as two weeks in the sun - FINANCIAL TIMESVance is near the top of his form in this tale of interplanetary adventure and financial skulduggery ... NIGHT LAMP yields rich rewards in its humorous complexities - PUBLISHERS WEEKLYJack Vance is the richest of stylists . . . Night Lamp ranks with his very best, the quintessential Vance novel - Interzone
