Notes: Publication date from the publisher's website. The copyright page shows only 2009, and states 'First edition'. This is the special collector's edition of 500 slipcased copies, signed and hand numbered by the author. It includes two exclusive short stories , an embossed invitation card, and a 'Mysterious Alfonso' poster. The publisher's website gives a false page count (416 pages). The cover art is not credited, but probably by Emma Snow. The chapter of the forthcoming novel is on the unnumbered pages, and shows at the end three pages with 'old' (not real) advertisments.
