Are there any editions of Cyteen I contained in a single volume? I have been trying to find one with no luck. |

I'm surprised you are having difficulty! Here you go -- all in one: Cyteen 1 |

Thank you, Sk8ter. I see that small print on the front cover that says, Complete in one volume. I had missed that before! |

I currently have three such volumes: A signed copy, a lending copy, and a copy I got from the library for spousal consumption. :pizza: |

I have both the the hardcover and the trade paperback single volume editions. I understand Herself does not countenance the 'validity' of the split mass market editions. :rofl: :invert |

What, then, is one to do with said editions? Save them for a long backpacking trip? |

I've said before that I think all extant copies of The Betrayal, The Rebirth and The Vindication should be gathered and destroyed, but some disagree. |

Post them on Paperbackswap.com. That is what I will do with mine when I have obtained my singleton version. Star-ji, do you preclude spousal reading of your signed copy? |

I see the fine print does not slip past your thorough legal mind, Koki-ji! The facts are that the lending copy is lent, and I provided the signed copy for spousal perusal. When Commitment to Read was achieved, I authorized the use of the signed copy. It became clear that the period of use was to be an protracted one, due to spousal reading for very short spans, often two to three minutes, before spousal loss of consciousness due to extreme ordinary sleep deprivation, and the sad condition of being unable to read when tired, from which, fortunately, I do not personally suffer. Spousal concern was expressed for the safety and condition of the signed copy under these conditions. I then obtained the library copy. The other option was to offer the three volume paperback edition :knife: , but I am not that kind of person. :innocent Incidentally, just so there is no misunderstanding -- or later embarrassment -- the "signed" copy is not signed for me. It reads "Best wishes Marshall, CJ Cherryh". I got it on ebay. It would be perhaps more meaningful were my name Marshall, but I still value it. Occasionally I think of Marshall. |

Thank you for that lucid and compelling explanation. I feared I would be compelled to intervene on behalf of the Starlady. I think perhaps you ought to consider changing your name to Marshall so that you match what must surely be your most prized possession. On the other hand, what kind of kif must he be, to have disposed of this treasure on EBay? |

My copy of Stardust by Neil Gaiman and Charles Vess is not autographed by either the author nor the artist, but it is inscribed to a young lady who apparently received it as a graduation gift, if memory serves (the copy in question has already been packed away with all my other books, else I would post the actual inscription here now). |

Out of curiosity, is the verbal content of the three separate volume form of Cyteen, which I've never even seen, different from the one-volume form? |
