Books Update: Books From The Classic Riverworld Series
*Science Fiction, Fantasy & Horror: Philip Jose Farmer created the Riverworld series for a competition in 1952. His novel, Owe For The Flesh, won first prize, but he abandoned the novel (and nearly gave up writing) when the prize money vanished. Farmer took up the idea again in the early 1970s, to great acclaim, and the original novel was eventually found and published more than two decades after it was written. We have the first four Riverworld books, To Your Scattered Bodies Go (#1), The Fabulous Riverboat (#2), The Dark Design (#3) and The Magic Labyrinth (#4), as well as a collection of Farmer’s short stories (Riverworld And Other Stories) which includes the revised and extended novelette that was the first published appearance of the Riverworld. All except The Magic Labyrinth are 1st UK PB.
