Does anyone out there own a copy of the Ziesing edition of Insomnia? I have some questions for anyone who does:
I've heard that this edition has problems with the text (as compared with the ordinary (Viking, I think) edition); is this the case? If so, how bad/what issues? I intend to use this as my reading copy (looking good on the shelf is only half the job) and wouldn't want to buy it if there are issues. I don't remember where I heard about the text issues and can't find the source to repeat exactly what I think I read, frustratingly.
Also, what are the pages like, in terms of paper, illustrations (if any), printing, etc.? There don't seem to be many photos of the interior online.
FYI, I would be buying a blue gift edition, but I believe the content (for both of my questions) is the same with the red traycased edition - if you have either, you may be able to answer my question.
Thanks.
