These two early Ellison books were reprinted by Pyramid Books in 1975 after being long unavailable. Only a few of the 25 stories in GENTLEMAN JUNKIE are speculative fiction, but several are first-rate. SPIDER KISS (originally called ROCKABILLY) is a rock novel of the "Funky Fifties", one of Ellison's few novels and perhaps his best (this is the second Pyramid printing). SPIDER KISS has less exterior wear than JUNKIE and is a somewhat tighter copy with whiter pages, but both are in pretty nice condition.
