Rogue Ship, A.E. van Vogt, Doubleday, New York, 1965 Review copy

First edition of A. E. van Vogt's Rogue Ship, a novel constructed from three interrelated science fiction stories originally published in magazines between 1947 and 1963, here reworked and unified into a continuous narrative. The work reflects van Vogt's characteristic approach to speculative fiction, blending fast-paced plotting with themes of identity, adaptation, and survival in a technologically advanced future. This copy is further enhanced by the presence of the original Doubleday review slip.
