This is not the complete book, it's a promotional booklet that contains ONLY the first 16 pages of the novel. Spine is intact but the booklet does show significant wear. Please take a close look at all of the photos provided, as they depict the exact item you will receive. I do not use stock images. Shipping Policy Due to ever increasing postage costs, shipping is charged separately rather than hidden in the item's price. This method is more equitable, allowing customers closer in proximity to benefit from reduced shipping costs. For orders with multiple items, I'm happy to offer combined shipping (which can further save on shipping expenses). Returns are accepted, provided the item is returned in the same condition it was received.
