    This book was packaged very well! Definitely arrived with no damage from shipping and in the same shape as described in the listing. There was a leftover portion of a sticker on the back, but for an anthology book, I'm not bothered by this. The book is in really great condition. Shipping was fast, and the price was good for such a book! Thank you so much!
