Boldly SIGNED and DATED on the title page by the celebrated author! NOT inscribed to anyone, simply SIGNED and DATED by the great Jim Butcher! Please note there is another signature present on the same page! Despite our best efforts, we have been unable to ascertain, with an acceptable degree of certainty, the identity of the other individual who also signed this book.For this reason, we MUST proceed with an abundance of caution and assume that the other signature is simply the writing of a previous owner.We MUST assume the other signature adds no monetary value or has any cultural significance.If anything, the additional signature should be viewed as an unfortunate flaw!Interestingly though, the other individual appears to have used the same or similar pen? Once again, we want to repeat that there is an additional signature present on the same page as the Jim Butcher signature and we MUST assume it is simply the writing of a previous owner. A TRUE First American Edition/First Printing/First State with ALL First Edition Points present! This rare treasure has some clearly visible wear, but is still in Highly Desirable, Highly Collectible condition! The wear, however, should be carefully examined/considered BEFORE buying. The book appears gently read and other than the assumed previous owner signature we mentioned earlier, has no internal writing, no foxing, no remainder marks, no missing pages and is NOT Ex-Libris or a BCE. The binding is holding tight and the pages are still surprisingly crisp and clean!

Please note the wear to the spine/corners/boards, particularly noticeable near/along the edges, and the discoloration/marks that are present on the pages!

Please note the wear on the spine, at the corners and near/along the edges! The wear, particularly near/along the edges, is clearly visible and should be carefully examined/considered. We tend to grade the condition of our books rather harshly and took into consideration any and all wear when determining the value of this rare book. We purposely and closely photographed what we consider to be the most obvious and egregious wear. Once again, we want to reiterate that the wear to both the book and the dust jacket is clearly visible! All of the wear should be carefully examined/considered BEFORE buying. Numerous photographs from various angles were taken for your consideration/inspection. Please closely and carefully view ALL the pictures for further clarification!!
