I need to replace my dog-eared mass market edition. Along with "Hyperion", this is the best book to introduce people to Dan Simmons' work.

I'm a big Dan Simmons fan, horror and SF both. He's all over the map. If it's as horrifying as Song of Kali...brrrrrrr...

I've always wanted to read this, but have never gotten around to reading it. Actually, I think it is the first thing I've ever added to my Amazon Wishlist in the early 00's.
