I've only just realised that in my copy of The Farseekers, Part One doesn't actually have a title. It's supposed to be Obernewtyn, but in mine it's just blank.

I have a 2007 Penguin reprint edition, and I'm wondering if anyone else has the same missing title, or if mine's just misprinted.

Wow, I had not noticed that. I have the 2002 (Edit; oops, read the publication page wrong :P) orange spine compilation of Obernewtyn through Ashling and it's lacking a title for Part I too :|

The encyclopaedia says that it should be Obernewtyn, so there must be a few editions with that title... Seems strange that two separate editions don't have it...

I've got the 93 Puffin edition and it has the Obernewtyn title. My guess is that they dropped the 'Obernewtyn' title at some point after the series started taking off and getting a bit more popular as to not cause confusion with the previous book, perhaps.

I've got about 7 different editions of Farseekers (I have a problem :$ ), I'll check them now...

First ed, Penguin (1990) - Part I - Obernewtyn
Puffin (1993) - Part I - Obernewtyn
Point SF/Scholastic (1994) - Part I - Obernewtyn
Penguin (1997) - Part I
Obernewtyn & Farseekers, SFBC (2000) - Part I
Tor (2000/2001) - Part I
Ober/Far/Ash Omnibus, Penguin (2002) - Part I
Starscape (2003) - Part I
Penguin (2007) - Part I
Random House (2008) - Part 1 - Refuge
Obernewtyn+Farseekers, Bluefire/Random House (2011) - Part I - Refuge

Interesting. Agree that they probably just dropped the "Obernewtyn" part to avoid confusion with the first book.

Edit: added as much to the encyclopedia entry for Part I: ~Link~

Could someone let us know what it is in the 1997 edition?
Edit: added the ones from meisje's list below.

Min, you do have a problem. Your problem is that there are some editions missing from your collection :nods:

There should be a list that people can go through and update of every edition they have of each book, like in the library or something. By the 2013 reading competition.

Not at all a problem to have multiple copies!

Meisje, didn't you start a thread a while ago about that same topic? If people want they can post it there, already a few people did so.

I'm genuinely curious about how many.....
