I do have a minor quibble, though. Unless there's some radically different edition out there I've never seen (or, as Peter Straub once speculated, a higher power allows a few "perfect" copies of every novel into the marketplace,and you've found one) I'm pretty sure that "Mailman" is a few hundred pages short of 800.
