Carolyn's not so different from the other people around her. She likes guacamole and cigarettes and steak. She knows how to use a phone. After all, she was a normal American herself once, before she and the others were taken in by the man they called Father. In the years since then, she and her adopted siblings have studied the books in his Library and learned some of the secrets of his power. Now, Father is missing perhaps even dead and the Library that holds his secrets stands unguarded. And with it, control over all of creation.

Clothes are a bit tricky, but everyone says nice things about her outfit with the Christmas sweater over the gold bicycle shorts.After all, she was a normal American herself once. That was a long time ago, of course. Before her parents died.

paperback. Zustand: Good. Our good condition books are generally good for reading but not for gifting or collecting. They could have imperfections such as creasing, fanning, inscriptions, margin notes, yellowing, staining on edge or cover or pages, bumps, scuffs, etc etc (sometimes multiple of these). It's a wide category that encompasses anything that isn't almost-new down to anything that is slightly better than poor. We would NOT recommend gifting Good books - these should be considered reading copies. Our books are dispatched from a Yorkshire former cotton mill. We list via barcode/ISBN so please note that the images are stock images and may not be the exact copy you receive, furthermore the details about edition and year might not be accurate as many publishers reuse the same ISBN for multiple editions and as we simply scan a barcode or enter an ISBN we do not check the validity of the edition data when listing. If you're looking for an exact edition please don't order (at least not without checking with us first, although we don't always have time to check). We aim to dispatch prompty, the service used will depend on order value and book size. We can ship to most countries, see our shipping policies. Payment is via Abe only.
