WorldCat is the preferred source for page counts for printed books and they have this one listed with 432 pages. Amazon UK also has 432 pages.
Do you have the book in hand? Is there nothing after page 417? Some things we can count and others we cannot.
Included end material may include acknowledgments, afterwords, appendices, bibliographies, glossaries, indexes, notes, and suggested discussion questions.
We don’t count the pages used for advertisements, preview chapters for other books or introductory material paged using roman numerals.
Thanks.

Yes I have the book. The actual story page numbers stop at 417, then there is one blank page, three pages about the publisher, and a final blank page. So in total 422 pages but not sure if those last five count?
Thanks!
