First printing with complete number line down to 1. Signed and dated at a book event in San Diego (Condor, 2019) in my presence by author on title page. The book would be As New save for a tiny fold at page 289, barely noticable. Otherwise the book is unmarked and apparently unread. Tips are pointed, boards are firm and spine is tight. The jacket has a small crumple at spine bottom and slight fold along middle spine. Looks like a fire upon the deep now in a new shiny plastic cover. Shipping box is suitable for wrapping. Winner of the 1993 Hugo Award for Best Novel.
