Comments and Reviews


23skidoo ● 28th Feb 2025		The edition I indexed - borrowed from a library - has no UPC or cover price and due to a misprinting the ISBN in the inside cannot be read. I'm wondering if this was one of those that originally came in a set with an audio tape? For some reason other editions have this categorized as Non-fiction which is obviously a mistake so I will ask the moderators to remove that designation.
