Drood

A first printing of a hefty novel by Dan Simmons, which borrows from the last, unfinished novel by Charles Dickens, "The Mystery of Edwin Drood."

In jacket with shadowy image of a top-hatted man to front panel. --- With remainder mark to textblock lower edge and a hint of tanning to leaves, else a tightly-bound, sound, unmarked copy. Unclipped jacket ($26.99/29.99) also in great shape though with some back panel soiling; wrapped in removable archival mylar protector.
