Vintage 128 page mass market paperback titled TOWER OF ZANID by L. Sprague deCamp/ Airmont Books # SF2, First printing (unstated), February 1963/ The Tower of Zanid is a science fiction novel by American writer L. Sprague de Camp, the sixth book of his Viagens Interplanetarias series and the fourth of its subseries of stories set on the fictional planet Krishna. Chronologically it is the seventh Krishna novel. It is the Year 2168--and men have become star-rovers. The agreed-upon code is that sciences and gadgets beyond the cultural level of the peoples inhabiting the other planets will not be introduced by Earthmen, or other visitors. Such is the situation on the planet of Krishna, most Earthlike in physical attributes, climate, and inhabitants, when adventurer Anthony Fallon decides to take the risk of winning a kingdom. With enough money, perhaps he can raise a private army... But there is one risk that Anthony Fallon hesitates to take. Only under pain of death will he explore the mysteries of the dreaded TOWER OF ZANID! The book is complete and in GOOD condition with some overall wear. The inside pages are off-white. The bottom edges of pages 35 through 55 have some small tears and/or small chunks missing.
