Book= Fine
Dustjacket= VG+ or better
ex-ChUSFA: stamp on first inside page, page 85. MORE INFO

Book is tight and very square - obviously unread. Dustjacket is in nice condition, except for a 2" tear at bottom of (blank) back cover, with associated 2" and 5" fold-traces leading to it (see Scan #3.) This has been neatly repaired with non-yellowing library tape (on the inside of the DJ.)

Omnibus of: STORM SEASON (1982) + THE FACE OF CHAOS (1983) + WINGS OF OMEN (1984) - the 4th, 5th, and 6th anthologies in the "Thieves' World" multi-authored series. All of those were paperback originals, so I believe this SFBC edition to be the first (and only?) hardcover appearance for any.
