His fiction displays consummate style, wit, imagination, and an unmatched ability to conjure vivid, exotic, yet convincing societies. A Vance character seldom resorts to violence, preferring cunning or persuasion -or, in the DyingEarthstories, the occasional magic spell. Vance's first published book, The DyingEarth(1950), takes place inEarth's unimaginably far future, when science has passed away and magic rules the world. He revisited the setting in The Eyes of the Overworld (1966), Cugel's Saga (1983), and Rhialto the Marvellous (1984). Some DyingEarthcharacters only dabble in magic, like the wily rogue Cugel the Clever; others struggle for mastery, like the rising young magician Turjan; an elite few are vain arch-magicians, such as Rhialto. The Pelgrane Press DyingEarthroleplaying game, authorized and approved by Vance, lets you create your own magical stories with characters of any power level. Even if you haven't yet read the stories, or you've never played a roleplaying game, the simple rules conjure a Vancian atmosphere for Cugels, Turjans, and Rhialtos alike. (...)€
