London: Robert Hale, 1974. 1st Edition . Hardcover. Fine/Very Good. First Printing of the First UK edition. A Fine copy, bumped at both ends of the backstrip but a bright, fresh copy with sharp corners and silver titles to the backstrip. The Jacket is unclipped with price of £1.90 as called for. Minor print-soiling to the rear panel (as you might expect with a Hale), minor scrapes to spine ends with loss of laminate but not paper. Some very minor scrapes to front panel bottom left but a VG clean dustjacket. This is the first UK printing but does include the St Martin's press data (1975) at the colophon. Most UK copies would have been distributed to the libraries and the remainder of the print run sent directly to the US for re-packaging by the American publisher. A scarce title by this enduringly popular and highly collected author
