Stated First Edition in softcover as issued; A Good to Very Good book. SIGNED by the author on the title page. This is the TRUE FIRST EDITION of this wildly popular novel and series, the softcover being self published by Paolini the year before the first edition hardcover came out. This copy is in good to very good condition with soiling to the pages and text block, some creasing to the corners including a large fold to the lower corner of the front cover, and a couple of whited out areas to the title page and inside back cover with some glue residue to the rear free paper (probable ex-library markings although I can find no stamps in the book). The binding is tight and the pages are white; overall, a good copy that has been read a few times, unique in being the first edition of the novel, scarce signed. Interestingly, Paolini puts a message to his readers at the back of the book claiming all the work he put into the book and asking the reader to spread the word about the book; a unique aspect of this self-published first edition. Now protected in a mylar bag and shipped in a sturdy box.
