Description

First UK edition, first printing. Original black cloth with gilt titles to the spine, in dustwrapper. A very good copy, the binding square and firm with very slight bumping to the spine tips and the bottom corner of the upper board. The closed text block edge is lightly toned and marked, the contents are otherwise clean throughout and without stamps or inscriptions. Complete with the rubbed, nicked and creased dustwrapper which has a few short closed tears and associated creasing to the edges, the longest of which measures 2cm, repaired with six small pieces of tape to the underside. There are two thin lines of bubbling to the laminate at the spine. Not price-clipped (�6.95 on the front flap). A tough book in the UK first printing. Stephen King's fifth novel. After a deadly, weaponised virus ravages the United States leaving only a handful of immune humans alive, new supernaturally-led societies rise up and clash in a battle of good and evil in this epic post-apocalyptic novel.
