A strange thing happened this evening. I went to check the mail. There was a key to indicate I had a package in one of the larger boxes. I open it up and find an envelope with some return address I don't know. Within, is an old, first printing copy of Brief Lives. It was on my amazon wishlist, so perhaps it came from there? (I'm trying to collect them all as, alas, I have not yet read the entire series.) I'm not sure. No note or anything was included.
The odder part is when I opened it to flip through. The cover is bound upside down. In order to read it, one must flip to the back cover and turn it wrong side up. I tried to look up and see if this was a common problem, but my google-fu must not be strong tonight. All I find are posts about eye color and other assorted printing errors. I imagine that if this were a large batch of mis-printed covers - or even if it were intentional - someone might have commented. But it seems no one has. What gives with my mystery copy of the book? Anyone know the story on the upside down cover? -m This message has been edited. Last edited by: MemoryandDream, |

It's a printing error that happens from time to time. (I know someone wrote in to the blog about ...I think a Stardust which was upside down, but I can't find the entry right now). It's an interesting oddity, but not a significant misprint that people search out like they do for the Sandman misprint issues which were recalled.
