 @ppint. Yes, it was pretty good and I've enjoyed all of Shirley's books that I've read so far. with plenty to go. Wiki has this one as early cyberpunk, but I'm not really all that familiar with the category, so I can't speak to it's influence, which apparently was substantial.

 thank-you jimess: it's a good one, isn't it - both striking, and distinctive, as well as appropriate.

 the bar-code is actually "07100900195 15499" where the "00195" indicates the cover price in cents.
this was a common merkin formatting of / mis-usage of the bar-code on mass-market paperbacks and on the dust-jackets of hardcovers. only the latter, smaller bar-code block and number defines the particular book, being the catalogue number of the particular edition.

the other common merkin usage was to include the cat# in the latter part of the main body of the bar-code, and place the price in cents information in the secondary block - i believe this is now the accepted merkin formatting/usage.
