Clarges

In the far-future city of Clarges, you can live forever-if you can make the grade. In Clarges, everyone competes for the ultimate prize of immortality. Gavin Waylock lost the live-forever rank of Amaranth when he was accused of murder; now, after seven years in hiding, he begins again the struggle to reach the top. But a strong-willed woman, The Jacynth Martin, is determined to see him fail-and failure means death. SF Grandmaster Jack Vance crafts a classic tale of man against dystopia, rich in intrigue, suspense and dark humor. - Matt Hughes "Clarges," published originally as ""To Live Forever,"" is Volume 10 of the Spatterlight Press Signature Series.
