9 Tail Fox - Jon Courtenay Grimwood

Okay, so this wasn't a sequel to Felaheen.  I guessed what was going on as soon as he gave us a substantive flashback, but it was still enjoyable.  But then I love his writing style. Also, Amazon does not have a consistent listing for Mr. Grimwood largely because he is sometimes referred to as "Jon C Grimwood" and sometimes as "Jon Courtney Grimwood" [sic]. This is especially interesting when a graphic of the book cover (and the correct spelling of the name) are available immediately to the left of the typo. Did they switch to "C" because their data entry people just couldn't learn to type the longer version? In any case, there are missing titles (different, of course) under each name.

LUstbader has some of the same issues; I don't know if it occurs at Amazon or the OL books stores but it is an issue at RL bookstores. Eric Van Lustbader; Eric Lustbader; Eric v. Lustbader & E. V. Lustbader...

I have a first edition of one of JCGs boooks (Stamping Butterflies I think) which has his name spelt right on the dust jacket, but wrong on the embossed lettering on the spine.
