Gold endpapers. 408pp. This copy is first issue and meets all points: page 16, line 12, reads 'karstic' instead of 'karst.' and page 95, second paragraph, has 'thirty two feet per second' instead of the corrected 'thirty two feet per second per second.'

Description:
New York: Villard Books, 1996. 1st Edition 1st Printing. Hardcover. Fine/Fine. 1st Edition/1st Printing with the Random House number line. In Fine/Fine condition, almost new with spots of foxing on uneven cut vertical paper edges. A beautiful copy. Warner Bros had the rights in 2006 for Brad Pitt to film but the author then revoked all film rights. She then wrote her screenplay to be faithful to the work but got no takers. AMC tried again in 2014, then in 2021 FX and the screen writer Scott Frank announced plans with Director Johan Renck (Chernobyl, Breaking Bad). The book has won the Arthur C. Clarke, James Tiptree Jr., Kurd-Laßwitz-Pries, and British Science Fiction Awards. *Brenbooks specializes in hard-to-find books into film.*
