About this Item

mass market paperback 671 pp. Due to the oversized number of pages, the spine shows creasing, but it is intact. The front cover has some wear to the edges where the ink has been worn off. The back cover has a fold along the bottom left-hand corner and creasing on the top left-hand corner. The book shows some soiling. An acceptable reading copy or an upgrade for serious collectors.

Update: August 31, 2025 - Shipping to the USA with Tarriffs and CUSMA Compliance

Due to the unpredictable nature of tarriff rates and CUSMA compliance, we have had to introduce flat rate shipping to the USA. Canada Post now requires us to pre-pay all potential duties up front. We apologize for any inconvenience this may cause; and we hope that this all will be sorted out soon.
