About This Item
First Edition; A very good book in a near fine price clipped dust jacket. SIGNED by the author on the half title page with no inscription. A handsome copy of this novel written before fame came with "Ender's Game"; somewhat scarce, particularly signed. This copy is in very good condition with some minor fading and sunning to the board ends and edges, some light soiling to the boards, and a slight lean to the binding, otherwise a tight binding and clean white pages. Housed in a near fine price clipped dust jacket that has been trimmed at the bottom of the front flap, also with some mild rubbing to the spine ends and corners, and some light age-toning to the panels, else a clean and crisp jacket housed in a fresh mylar cover. Not remaindered, not price clipped, not ex-library; ships in a sturdy box.
