The Glamour
Christopher Priest
0684816156 326 p. Brand New copies with a bit of excessive shelf wear; All Richard Grey wanted was the recover from the horrifying injuries he sustained when a car bomb exploded near him. He could remember the years he spent as a cameraman, covering stories all over the world, and he could remember taking a break from his career, but there was a profound blankness where his memory of the weeks before the explosion should have been. It was as if his life had been re-edited and part of it erased. Then Susan Kewley came to visit him and spoke of those weeks. And what Richard wanted most was a glimpse of what that time had held for the two of them. But the glimpses he is afforded take him into a strange and terrible twilight world - a world of apparent madness, the world of the glamour.

Prestige
Christopher Priest
Two 19th century stage illusionists, the aristocratic Rupert Angier and the working-class Alfred Borden, engage in a bitter and deadly feud; the effects are still being felt by their respective families a hundred years later.Working in the gaslight-and-velvet world of Victorian music halls, they prowl edgily in the background of each other's shadowy life, driven to the extremes by a deadly combination of obsessive secrecy and insatiable curiosity.At the heart of the row is an amazing illusion they both perform during their stage acts.The secret of the magic is simple, and the reader is in on it almost from the start, but to the antagonists the real mystery lies deeper. Both have something more to hide than the mere workings of a trick. Christopher Priest's award-winning masterpiece is now a major Hollywood movie, directed by Christopher Nolan and starring Christian Bale, Hugh Jackman, Scarlett Johannson, Michael Caine, David Bowie and Andy Serkis.
