Lord Valentine''s Castle

English

By (author): Robert Silverberg

In this epic, [a] brilliant concept of the imagination, an amnesiac wanderer rediscovers his destiny as ruler of a vast planet (Chicago Sun-Times).
 
Valentine, a drifter who remembers nothing except his name, finds himself on the fringes of a great city. Joining a motley troupe of jugglers and acrobats, he travels with them across the magical planet of Majipoor. All the while, he hopes to meet someone who can help him retrieve his past.
 
Then Valentine begins to dreamand to receive messages in those dreams. Messages that tell him he is a lord, a king turned out of his castle. Now his travels have a purpose: to return to his home, discover what enemy took his memory, and claim the destiny that awaits him.

About Robert Silverberg

Robert Silverberg (b. 1935) sold his first science fiction stories to the lower-grade pulps in the mid-fifties moved swiftly to the three prestigious magazines (Astounding Galaxy and The Magazine of Fantasy & Science Fiction) and as his style deepened and themes expanded in through the next reached the first rank of science fiction writers. He is regarded as the greatest living writer of science fiction an SFWA Grandmaster ex-President (in the 1960s) of that organization winner of five Nebulas four Hugos and many other domestic and foreign awards. Among his famous novels are Dying Inside The Book of Skulls Downward to the Earth A Time of Changes; his novella Born with the Dead (1974) is perhaps the finest work of that length published within the genre. Shifting to a predominating fantasy in the late 1970s (Lord Valentine's Castle and the attendant Majipoor Series) Silverberg continued to write science fiction and won a Nebula in 1986 for the novella Sailing to Byzantium and Hugos for the novelettes GILGAMESH IN THE OUTBACK and Enter a Soldier: Later Enter Another. He was editor of the long-running original anthology series New Dimensions and of important reprint anthologies such as The Science Fiction Hall of Fame Alpha and The Arbor House Treasury of Modern Science Fiction.
