Comments and Reviews


ppint. 28th Dec 2019		serialised under the title, "the domains of koryphon" in amazing vol.48, #2, #3; (8,:10/1974), q.v. each part accompanied by b+w illustration by michael nally aka "the grey prince" (uk p/b 1990)



ppint. 27th Jun 2018		isbn is given in the indica, cat# upon the cover; very confusingly, the cat# is also given on the spine of the book as part of a string commencing "380", which is the avon books isbn publisher code - but this string is not an isbn10 nor even an sbn9.



ppint. 23rd Mar 2018		near-identical editions/printings sharing cat#, cover price and cover art by patrick woodroffe (art is signed) cover price $1.25 176pp. including titles, indica etc, end pp. refer to indica to establish whether the copy you hold was merkin- or canadadian- printed, and whether a line advising of (an undated) thrid printing is present. no priority established between the merkin and canadadian first printings, nor liable to be.



ppint. 13th Nov 2017		number in isbn13 field is^W was wrong and has been deleted.



ppint. 23rd Mar 2018		cover art by tony roberts (what's visible of it). (this comment is from another edition of this book)



ppint. 23rd Mar 2018		near-identical editions/printings sharing merkin-printed covers and hence also cat# and cover art by david b. mattingly (signed, also credited) near-meaningless daw books collector no. 473 160pp. including titles, indica etc, end pp. advertising cover prices vary: cover price $2.25 (merkin-printed carcass ("book")) cover price $2.50 (canadadian-printed carcass ("book")) refer to indica to establish whether the carcass of the copy you hold was merkin- or canadadian- printed; also, the printing number string starts with "2" - i.e. daw books accounted it the second printing, though published simultaneously with the merkin 1st. n.b. also: canadadian copies bear a cover price of $2.50 rather than the merkins' $2.25, so the cat# alpha prefix, "UE" which includes new american library's price-code letter "E", should have been changed to "UW", but was not: this seems to be a systematic error in the cat#s of nal group mmpbs where simultaneous separate merkin- and canadadian-carcassed copies bear different prices. ("seems to be" because yr hmbl srppnt.'s not checked all...) (this comment is from another edition of this book)



ppint. 23rd Mar 2018		new cover typography, isbn, bar-code, number and cover price, but cover art by jim burns retained from the first coronet books edition/printing. (this comment is from another edition of this book)



ppint. 23rd Mar 2018		cover art by jim burns (uncredited, collected in "lightship" jim burns, chris evans (1985), q.v.) cover price 60p, $1.95 australia & new zealand so this edition should be re-flagged "international" according to respected moderator's rule - or not so re-flagged, according to equally well-respected moderator's heartfelt plea 160pp. including titles, indica etc, end pp. advertising (this comment is from another edition of this book)



ppint. 13th Nov 2017		publication year in indica is incorrect; this was noted at the time of publication in locus, the monthly news magazine of the sf, f & h world, and is also noted by jaffery. (this comment is from another edition of this book)
