Thanks, money is no object so where do I get a nice hard cover edition of one of his books? I have no idea what he doesn't have. Sure, he has probably been on this page but I can't keep a secret anyway!
: : My husband is a huge fan and has most of his books. I need a birthday gift idea! Anything new? Where do I get a collection of some books? Thanks a lot.
: Interesting quesiton, Ildi... If he doesn't have all the titles and maybe hasn't read all the titles, you can jump over to the main page here (there's a button on top of the page) and go to Remy's archive located near the top of the main page.
: On Remy's archive page you can click on bibliography in English and see if there's any Vance you hubby doesn't have. Then, off to ABE Books (http://www.abebooks.com) web page or over to Amazon.com to see if what's available.
: Just picking a couple less common mystery titles: _The House on Lily Street_ or _View from Chickweed's Window_ (often hard to find and no longer in print) might be something he doesn't have. Or if he's a strict SF/Fantasy fan, maybe one of the niftier signed/presentation hardcovers or whatever your budget allows - can't beat Vance's first novel: _The Dying Earth_ and there are always various copies in different states (and prices) to choose from.
: BTW, you sure your husband isn't reading this page?
