Sobre este artículo
Colorado Springs: Gauntlet Publications, 2006. First edition. Hardcover and softcover. All three books are fine as issued. Clamshell case is very good plus (black cloth with spine label). This is the original outline, in narrative form, of a proposed 20-hour ABC-TV mini-series that Matheson wrote in the 1970's (appearing here in publication for the first time).Television executives asked him to shorten the series into 7 hours. Later, after Matheson had written three hours of the miniseries the two parted company. Matheson's vision could not be condensed without destroying the essence of the plot and characters.The story follows Robert Allright as he explores both his own demons and those of psychics past, as he struggles to decipher his father's dying wish to explore an archeological dig in Arizona. His only clue is a mystifying crystal that his father believes is the key to a great discovery. Published in an edition of 552 copies hardbound in dust jacket (art by Harry O. Morris). This set, assembled by a collector, includes a copy of the numbered first edition, the advance excerpt, and a proof, all signed by Matheson and housed in a custom folding clamshell box.
