E-104: Avalon. Very Good in Very Good- dust jacket. 1958. First Edition; First Printing. Hardcover. Hardcover. 8vo. Avalon Books. 1958. 223 pgs. First Edition/First Printing. DJ has shelf-wear present to the DJ (DJ spine ends reinforced with cello tape). Previous owner's name present to the FFEP. Text is clean and free of marks, binding tight and solid, boards have light wear present. "The first full-scale use in SF of linguistics as a "hard" science." The planet Pao has a stagnant culture. Scientists of the neighboring world Breakness launch a ruthless experiment, jarring Pao into new vitality by installing three class-languages; one for a warrior class, one for technicians, and one for merchants. But their formula contains weaknesses of their own degenerate culture. Beran Panasper- heir to the throne of Pao- has been spirited away to Breakness to be trained as a tool for later subjugation of Pao. But he still has a mind of his own, and his Paonian characteristics will blend with Breakness science in an unexpected way! E-104; 8vo 8" - 9" tall; 223 pages .
