Vacancy & Ariel by Lucius Shepard

Shepard's double novella homage to the classic Ace Doubles format delivers his signature hallucinatory prose in two distinct flavors. Vacancy explores supernatural horror through a washed-up actor's perspective, while Ariel transmutes SF concepts into meditations on love and quantum reality. Subterranean's trade hardcover treatment gives these novellas the presentation they deserve. Both book and dustjacket remain in excellent new condition.
