Text blocks clean, with off white edges. The pages are crisp and unblemished. Feel very lightly read. All books grade fine. Jackets are lovely and glossy, having been kept in fitted archival covers since purchase, The Quantum Thief has a little crimping to the head of the spine. Overall a beautiful fine set. For grading accuracy books are photographed without a protective book cover. This book is fitted with a non adhesive archival quality book protector to make a worthy addition to your collection. Note we do not use stock images, the book pictured is the book described. A superior set of this highly regarded trilogy, all UK first prints.
