 half new english library impromptu ''double'' pairing unbound (or possibly stripped, but i don't think so) carcases of the 7/1978 printing with carcases of the 4/1979 printing of ''those who watch'', q.v.; the numbering of the two novels pages remains separate and the double is undated.
the two novels are bound normally with respect to one another, they are same way up.
