Excuse me for shouting, but I just found, won and paid for a true first hardcover edition of The Tomb on eBay!!! My collection of Adversary Cycle firsts is now complete. I won't tell you what I paid, cuz I don't want anyone telling me I paid too much (which I doubt) or complaining that they paid too much more than I did (which I suspect is true). Life is good!

Cool! Way to go, Biggles! Congrats!
Now you have to post pictures of all your original HCs of the AC.
I don't think I have ever seen them......Well maybe I saw your copies at GU-3.

The most merciful thing in the world, I think, is the inability of the human mind to correlate all its contents. ... The piecing together of dissociated knowledge will open up such terrifying vistas of reality, and of our frightful position therein, that we shall either go mad from the revelation or flee from the light into the peace and safety of a new dark age.

There's an idea. I'll take some of the other 5 right away.

What do you consider a "first"? UK over US edition? or what?
But, congratulations anyway.... it's nice to have a set.

To me, a first is a first. Thus the NEL is the true first of Nightworld, although I have the Dark Harvest. Also, the UK first of Legacies predates the US first, etc.
