The paperback binding remains secure and square, displaying only minor edge-wear and faint curling to the corners typical of careful shelf storage. The covers retain strong colour without significant creasing to the spine, indicating it has likely seen little to no reading wear. The text block exhibits the standard, uniform age-toning to the page margins common for trade paperbacks of this era, yet the pages remain entirely clean, tightly bound, and free of any tears or extraneous marks.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-path-to-node=\"0\"\u003e\u003cb data-path-to-node=\"0\" data-index-in-node=\"633\"\u003eCatalogue Note\u003c\/b\u003e: This is a true first edition, first printing of the inaugural volume in the author's acclaimed \u003ci data-path-to-node=\"0\" data-index-in-node=\"744\"\u003eThe Power of Five\u003c\/i\u003e series, distinguished by the complete number line '2 4 6 8 10 9 7 5 3 1' on the copyright page.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-path-to-node=\"1\"\u003eThe title page bears the authentic signature of Anthony Horowitz in black ink.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-path-to-node=\"1\"\u003eWhile standard reading copies of this title are plentiful, signed first printings in the original paperback format are uncommonly encountered on the open market, as they were often heavily circulated or discarded rather than preserved by collectors. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-path-to-node=\"1\"\u003eWhen fourteen-year-old Matt Freeman is sent to a rehabilitation programme in the remote Yorkshire village of Lesser Malling, he quickly realises something is deeply wrong.
