 orion millennium/victor gollancz gollancz sf masterworks #19 b-format p/b printings

first printing 1999, second impression 2000 - at least five printings; cover typography changes,
cover art is reversed l-r, colour balance varies; but the isbn10 (later isbn13) identity is retained

cover art by chris moore
cover price £6.99
208 or 216pp? (check) including titles, indica etc, end pp.
refer to indica publishing history to see which printing is held

read and double-check the indica publishing history printing history and compare the tale of impressions, printings/reprints and new editions with the printing number-line, where there is one, which applies to the edition listed most immediately above the number line.

the cover image provided does not appear to be of the first 1999 p/b, nor of the 2000 second impression, nor of the undated fifth printing by number-line; which are all much less brown and from which the same chris moore art on this cover has been reversed left-right.
