OK, if you ever wanted to own a first edition of China Mieville's Iron Council, I've listed mine on ebay.
There's minor sun damage on the spine, but it's otherwise in great condition.
This first edition UK hardback of China Mieville's Iron Council is in very good condition - perfect except for some discolouration and slight creasing on the spine (see photos).<br><br>Iron Council is the third book set in Mieville's Bas-Lag world and can be read independently of the others. It won the Locus and Clarke awards and was nominated for Hugo and World Fantasy awards, reflecting the impact Mieville's genre-defining weird fantasy style and complex, charged, political writing.
An interesting piece about #writing, #reading, and a bit on collecting #firstEditions. There’s some irony in owning a first edition of #greatGatsby owned earlier by Dorothy Scarritt, Oppenheimer’s secretary at Los Alamos. And I had only a little twinge reading that one who just turned 40 might expect to read only 480 more books carefully if one manages to read one book a month.
