"[A] magnificent beast of a new novel . . . a story about human beings trying to generate new hope in a world from which all hope has long since been burnt . . .

    Only one page was colored on, so "gently used" was a good way to describe this book. The quality is great. It was a really good price. It has no rips, torn pages, even the cover is like new, the appearance is better than described. The seller had good communication. Item arrived in a timely manner and was packaged well. I would buy from this seller again.
