New York, New York, U.S.A.: Farrar, Straus and Giroux, 1986. First Edition First Printing 1st Printing. Hardcover. Fair/Near Fine. Mikolaydak, Charles. In what was perhaps "her most remarkable adventure novel,'' L'Engle continues the award-winning Time Trilogy in this new work featuring "run-of-the-mill twins Sandy & Dennys in the remarkable Murray family," who are transported through time & space one day while fooling around on the new computer in their parents' lab. A FIRST EDITION, First Printing, from 1986, this hardcover 8vo has purple cloth-covered boards wrapping the spine, covered with lighter purple paper, stamped in gilt script to front & spine. As an EX-LIB copy, with partially torn-out card pocket & usual stamps & markings in front & to top & bottom outside page edges, condition is only Fair: heavily read by previous readers, worn down to underlying boards along both top & bottom edges. Rightward lean, but binding strong, hinges intact, interior pages unmarked. The unclipped DJ, having been protected under old library mylar, is a beauty! Clean & colorful, with old call number carefully removed from spine. Condition is Near Fine: virtually flawless & protected in new clear mylar cover to stay that way!
