 penguin books p/b first printing, first uk edition

cover art by alan craddock
cover price £3.99 (kiwiiian price?)
256pp. (check) including titles, indicia etc, end pp. advertising

somewhat oddly, the typography of the book's title on the front cover emboldens (emphasises) the subtitle and the primary title is de-emphasised. this was evidently a design policy decision by the great penguin's art director, as it's true of all four of the penguin p/bs in this tetralogy.

month of publication not given in the indicia: taken from locus
