Of course there is a hardback edition-- I'm lucky enough to have a first
edition.  But it is a bit old, and not very findable.  :)

On that note, I'd be interested in discussions with anyone who believes
they have a fine Wolfe collection.  Mine is probably decent, though some of
you may have better.  My prize possessions are a paperback of Operation
Ares, a signed copy of the original Plan(e)t Engineering, a hardcover of
The Devil in a Forest (which Wolfe was kind enough to send me as a gift),
and a signed Cheap Street edition of Empires of Foliage and Flower, among
others.  Any other ardent collectors out there?
