@juergen_hubert Look out for a bi-colored print, a color for each "plane of reality". That makes for an interesting reading experience.

@ManniCalavera@openbiblio.social Yeah, I actually have an edition from 1979 which does that.

@juergen_hubert I love this book. I bought a copy after seeing the film. I have the hardback with the green and red print, in English though 😉

@juergen_hubert I never knew it was written by an author named “Ende”.

@Virginicus@universeodon.com This was indeed the name he was born with, but it does seem poetically appropriate, doesn't it?

@juergen_hubert My copy is the one with this exact cover! I still have it around here somewhere, and it's probably my favorite fantasy book ever.

@juergen_hubert

My hardcover of this is one of my most prized possessions. The first movie was honestly pretty good. The second... well, the second half of the book is NOT something that can be easily adapted into a children's film. And the less said about part 3 the better.

I actually have STLs waiting for me to start printing again, of movie 1 Falkor and Atreyu and Artax in the swamp.
