Oh my

If true, this will make the value of my gorgeous 1st edition of the book go through the roof.

I picked it up at the dawn of the internet bookselling boom for 20 bucks because I love Tim Powers. I have perfect 1st's of all his greatest works- On Stranger Tides, Stress of Her Regard, Last Call.

In bookselling as in art, you can't go wrong buying what you like.
Sometimes you'll even turn a profit.
