Good book- I still hold the first of this series, Evergreen, as my favorite, but this was a good one, too- seemed to tie everything up neatly

This book does not contain any isbn. There is a book club edition number on the back 17152, and there is writing on the very first page (looks like someone wrote pricing to kayaks), but it is hardcover with a dustjacket, this was a gift to us so we are offering it here, it has not been read that we know of, maybe once by the gifter. The critics over at Amazon dot com gave it four out of five stars.
