All of it, the extra letter, the undex itself, all of it?

The extra letter (negative 6/36) comes with the UK limited edition. The bound-in Undex is available in the Canadian edition. The transparent undex is one of only 100 distributed (randomly?) in the Uk first edition. Check out the Guide to editions

Thank you. I feel left out now. Behind the times. If only I'd heard about the book earlier. I want one of each. The yawning chasm of consumer need is opening, I need to plug it soon....

new information on the negatives from steven: Steven Hall wrote: Folks might have noticed that the Aquarium Fragment is identified as Negative 1/36 at the end of the document. For each chapter in the book there is, or will be, an un-chapter, a negative. If folks look carefully at the novel they should be able to figure out why these un-chapters called negatives.
Not all the negatives are as long as the Aquarium Fragment - some are only a page, some are only a couple of lines. Some are much longer than the Aquarium Fragment. About a quarter of them are out there so far. (It’s an ongoing project set to run for a while yet) Not all of the negatives are online, some are, but they're hiding. Anyone with the Raw Shark UK special edition will have Negative 6/36 and anyone with a Canadian edition will have Negative 36/36 (and also a good idea of what some of the other negatives are).
The negatives are not deleted scenes, they are very much a part of the novel but they are all splintered from it in some way.

what would be really cool would be a negative edition of TRST with that cover and comprising of all the un-chapters or negatives.

I'm actually hoping for that too.
All these different editions, and different content being reason enough to uy them, can get tough, financially, if you're a collector.

For the password, or Negative 26? B&N for neg. 26. If you can't figure out the password, let me know and I'll PM it to you.
