Tor, New York, 1993, 1^st pr thus.  ISBN 0-812-50575-1.  MMPB, 251 pages.  Very good; light edge and cover wear, tight binding with a very slight lean; gently read; interior clean and unmarked.  ‘Long ago, the gods forged Twelve Swords of Power and threw them on the gameboard of life for men to scramble over.  But they forged too well; the Swords could kill the gods themselves.  Now, the gods gone and the Swords scattered, Wayfinder, the Sword of Wisdom, turns up in the hands of one Valdemar, a simple (or is he?) grower of grapes, who is in search of the perfect woman.  Ahead lies a battle against the world’s most infamous wizard.’ (from rear wrap)
