About this Item
If you are a discerning Koontz collector then this is the copy you are missing from your shelf. My own personal copy for many years, I am selling it because I need to trim down my collection and, as such, I am concentrating on the UK editions. Published by Putnam in 1977 this book is SIGNED AND LENGTHILY INSCRIBED BY DEAN R KOONTZ AS FOLLOWS: "TO HOWARD, THE PUBLISHER SWORE ON HIS MOTHER'S GRAVE THAT THE JACKET WOULD NOT HAVE A BAT ON IT BECAUSE THAT WOULD GIVE AWAY PART OF THE PLOT. WELL IF YOU CHECK THE JACKET, YOU'LL SEE THAT THE PUBLISHER HAD NO RESPECT WHATSOEVER FOR HIS MOTHER." The jacket is Very Fine and unclipped - it states $8.95 and has the code 7711 on the inner flat to confirm the first edition jacket. The book is Very Fine and the copyright page confirms the first printing in 1977. A truly superb example of this title; as close to 'new' as you will get. Seller Inventory # 003207

I charge shipping that reflects my actual costs. I do NOT offer cheap shipping and add it to the book price so please do not complain to me that Bob down the road offers cheaper postage. Sure he does - but the price of his book is hiked to reclaim it, or you're referring to a power seller who can negotiate postage discounts. I can't - I'm a private individual selling my private collection. ABE only allows me to set one postage rate so I charge the rate for hardbacks sent in a box with bubble wrap and polystyrene peanuts. Where postage is less - eg a paperback or small hardback - I refund the difference once I get my receipts and know the exact cost. ALL UK parcels are tracked. if you live outside the UK tracking is NOT provided unless you choose priority mail. PRIORITY MAIL TRACKING IS IMMEDIATELY UPDATED otherwise I will only update ABE with UK tracking details on request, and only when 10 working days has passed. There will be times when, due to the value of the book, I will insist on priority mail and this will be clearly stated in my listing. If you ignore this, your order will be refused.
