Seriously, I really like this edition. It's got a matte cover rather than gloss, which I think looks and feels better than the usual fingerprint-gathering U.S. shiny covers which seem to be a preferred option. It's on cream rather than bright-white-recycled paper, giving it that 40s feel. The cover gets away from that "put the title on the top 1/4 of the cover like a comic book" thing, integrating font with images. The dropped caps are a nice touch that doesn't translate into the Kindle version. Even the maps look nice. A great argument for paper copies.
My previous favourites were Blackthorn: Dynasty of Mars because it has a great Adam Diller cover, and the solid-feeling hardback version of The Spider: Extreme Prejudice even though it spelt my name wrong. Interestingly, the end-November-scheduled The Transdimensional Travel Company also has a Diller cover and the same production choices at the Mumph book (given that it's in the same continuity), so we'll have to see.
Anybody who feels they want to hoist a review to Amazon or Goodreads or anywhere else is encouraged to do so. I'm told by publishers who know about this kind of thing that strong reader reviews offer a discernable sales spike. This is why there are companies out there now selling "sock-puppet" (fake poster) reviews as sales tools.
