My records show I have 6 Big Book tickets and 1 Golden Oldie.
The Readerboard says 5 Big Book and 2 Golden Oldie.

It's not a big deal, but you may want to check.

Well I am gobsmacked, as the version I read was all text, but it was an ebook without any page numbers,
OK I will find another place for it.

There is a totally separate book that is the graphic novelThe Hedge Knight: The Graphic Novel

You might be able to get the genre oveturned in the Not really a graphic novel thread.
