I read Last Castle by Jack Vance from 1967 and a novella that has won both Hugo,Nebulla. The story,the writing was one of the best i have read by Vance short story or novel.

Unlike The Dragon Masters this is a story that deserves its highly rating as vintage Vance. Even by Jack Vance standards i was surprised by the great writing,story.

Now im reading The Moon Moth that is in SF Hall of Fame and seen as his best SF short by the fans too. The reason i have saved these two stories for rainy summer days.
