Newsgroups: rec.arts.sf.written From: jprlarib@cs.ruu.nl (Jan Peter Laribij) Subject: Jack Vance bibliography (by Hans Verkuil) Message-ID: <1993Jan27.145240.24613@cs.ruu.nl> Date: Wed, 27 Jan 1993 14:52:40 GMT Organization: Utrecht University, Dept. of Computer Science Keywords: Jack Vance, bibliography Lines: 1066 --------------------- JACK VANCE BOOKS AND STORIES ----------------------- Last update: January 23, 1993 This is a compilation of novels, stories, etc. written by Jack Vance (full name: John Holbrook Vance). I've tried to make it as complete as was possible and the result is quite good. There are six sections: 1 - A list of all his SF-books and short story collections 2 - A list of all his non-SF books 3 - A list of all his stories 4 - A list of his short story collections and the stories that appear in them 5 - A probably incomplete list of Jack Vance stories that appeared in anthologies. 6 - Miscellaneous, or everything that didn't fit in the previous sections. If you have additional information, or you see inconsistencies or errors, please e-mail them to: jprlarib@cs.ruu.nl Note that this is the account of a friend of mine, and you shouldn't expect a quick reply. I need more information on anthologies: first of all, I suspect that there are many anthologies that I know nothing about, and secondly I do not have the year of publication of most of the anthologies in section 5. I also like to have more data for the newly created section 6. Note that I have rearranged section one into two parts, the first only shows the title and the year of first publication, while the second part gives more detailed information, such as ISBN numbers, etc. Any corrections and additions is greatly appreciated. I want to thank the following people who helped me by providing lists and other Vance-related material I used in compiling this list: Richard W. Gombert Esther Hu Gregg Parmentier Richard Vermaas John C. Wenn Remy Wetzels Portions of list 5 are based on information from: Jack Vance: A Fantasmic Imagination ( 2nd Revised Edition ) A Working Bibliography, by Phil Stephensen-Payne & Gordon Benson, Jr. Enjoy!
