: 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?
May I suggest the infamous "Cugals Saga" as an excellent point of departure. Beware that once addicted to Cugal, the obsession steadily grows. The final stages being that of plundering used book stores for any Vance creation obtainable to relieve the lascivious yearning.
