Time to upgrade, Finn. You can pick it up in person next time you are in Berkeley, at one of the fine safe-havens for Gene Wolfe fans: Dark Carnival or (and how did I not know this place existed?) Other Change of Hobbit.
Check out these (mostly) awesome covers for the books from Millipede Press, which “is “dedicated to bringing the finest in horror and crime fiction back into print.”
I’m wrapping up David Goodis’ Nightfall right now, but intend to read the pictured book shortly. Huggable Maine native Stephen King says: “Trying to imagine what might have happened if Raymond Chandler had written The Exorcist is as close as I can come.”
Most of the books have worthwhile extras (short stories, introductions, etc.) too.
The sister company, Centipede, seems to do limited run fancy books and has a $1500 edition of Modcult-approved BoTNS on the way.

the funny (sad?) thing is that I have heard of the other change of hobbit.
I’m curious if this version will have the derivation of “undine” which iirc the old one was missing.
wpedia to the rescue. funny to think that wikipedia wasn’t complete enough for me to look up this term the last time I read these books.
