This past weekend I attended my 25th high school reunion. Refraiing from wreaking terrible acts of vengence, richly deserved though they would have been, on any of my classmates,
I spent some time talking to a quiet fellow I had never really gotten to know. He is now working as a screenwriter, having credits in several first-line movies and TV shows of the thriller variety. We discussed SF, which he reads a little, but he has never read any Vance.
I want to send him a Vance book, but I'm wondering where to start. Years ago, somebody loaned me Lyonesse and I couldn't "get into it"; later, after I had read other Vance books, I retried Lyonnesse and really liked it (of course). So where should I start my classmate?
