: I am looking for a book with two titles. It is Sword In Sheath or Island Of The Lost(UK). I want a hardcover. A dust jacket would be nice but is not a necessity. If you find that copy, buy it. ISLAND OF THE LOST is still on MY want list. The only copy that I have ever seen is that copy in Andre Norton's own collection (she made me a photocopy of the title and copy right page - so that I confirm the existance of the book for the bibliography). For some reason this book doesn't seem to be around even as much as the other two books in the series. It's even pretty rare in the Trade paper edition. I simply haven't even seen a copy as an X-library. SWORD IN SHEATH
