Terms
I try to accurately describe each book and if anything I err on the conservative side. The photos in each auction are of the actual books themselves and not stock photos. I will mention if the book dust jacket has been price clipped, it is an ex-library copy or a book club edition. When I say 1st edition I mean 1st printing - unless I qualify it. I also try and identify whether a book is a worldwide or a specific market 1st.
If you have any questions or need additional photos then just let me know.
If there is a particular book that you are interested in that I don't have listed then please let me know as I can try to track a copy down for you.

The First Chronicles of Thomas Covenant 2
Stephen Donaldson
Format: Hardcover

Weight: 586g
Cursed by a terrible disease, Thomas Covenant is an outcast in our world: shunned by his neighbours, pushed by loneliness to the edge of madness.
Suddenly he is transported to a mysterious and beautiful new world - the Land - where gentle people work magic with wood and stone, and the very earth and air bring healing. Covenant is welcomed as the reincarnation of a legendary saviour: his maimed hand and white gold wedding ring mark him as a figure of power and sorcery, with a wild magic powerful against evil.
But Covenant does not believe that the Land is real and thus, he becomes an unwilling tool of the enemy who seeks to destroy it: Lord Foul the Despiser.
Three times, in their hour of greatest need, the people of the Land will summon him to their aid. Three times, as their reluctant leader, he will fail them.
Only at the end, as a victorious Lord Foul prepares to devastate the Land and enslave its people forever, will Thomas Covenant call on the wild magic he alone can wield - for a last epic battle will the forces of evil.
