Hardcover. Condición: Very Good. No Jacket. Dragonmede by Rona Randall. Simon & Schuster, 1974. Book Condition / Dust Jacket Condition • Book: Very Good to Very Good +; Solid and attractive copy with sound binding and light to moderate general handling wear consistent with age. Blue and black cloth boards remain presentable, white spine lettering shuld still read clearly, and the book appears to retain good shelf presence overall. The 344-page text block and purple endpapers are nice period production details. • Dust Jacket: Not present. No dust jacket. (see photos) Printing identification note: Because this copy lacks a stated edition or printing and has no other edition points supplied, I would catalog it conservatively as a 1974 Simon & Schuster hardcover edition rather than as a confirmed first edition/first printing. That said, multiple bookseller and catalog records do show a 1974 Simon & Schuster hardcover issue, and at least some sellers describe that issue as a first edition, so the copy may well be from the original hardcover publication even though it is safest not to overclaim without explicit points from the copyright page. A gothic historical novel set in late nineteenth-century London, Dragonmede blends romance, menace, and period atmosphere in the classic gothic mode. Rona Randall was well known for suspenseful romantic fiction of this type, and this title should appeal to readers of vintage gothics, historical romance, and atmospheric women's fiction. Contemporary references also describe it as a gothic novel set in late-1800s London.…
