Editing Dying Earth (section)

=== Translations ===
[[WorldCat]] contributing libraries report holding all four books in French, Spanish, and (in omnibus edition) Hebrew translations; and report holding ''The Dying Earth'' in five other languages: Finnish, German, Japanese, Polish, and Russian.<ref group=lower-alpha>
The German national library (DNB) catalog lists German-language translations of all four ''Dying Earth'' books, which establishes some under-reporting by WorldCat. Beside non-participation, there may be some confusion regarding "(the) dying earth" as the first of four book and as the entire series.</ref>
<!-- compilation requires search for some specific titles; I suspect confusion regarding ''The Dying Earth'' book one and the series or omnibus. ... -->

The whole first volume (of six stories) has been translated also into Esperanto together with two Cugel stories and made available on-line as e-books by a long-time fan and Vance Integral Edition co-worker. Permission to translate and distribute (only into  Esperanto) was obtained informally direct from the author and, since his death in 2013, continues with ongoing permission from the author's estate. To date these are three: ''Mazirian the Magician'', ''The Sorcerer Pharesm'', and ''The Bagful of Dreams'' available for free download as EPub, Mobi and PDF.<ref>{{cite web| url = http://esperanto.us| title = Eldonejo Mistera Sturno}}</ref>
