: There was one TOR "Nightlamp" and one TOR "Araminta Station".
It's the HB of Araminta Station BTW.
That copy of Araminta Station has been at Andromeda for about three years! I ought to know, as I asked Rog to order me a copy of the Tor Hardback in about 93/4ish. Several months later (even then the book was hard to come by - 5 years past first printing) TWO copies arrived. I picked up my copy, so I assume that the other HB is that one!! as I recall seeing it around every time I went into Andromeda ;-)
: I think there were a couple more of the Ellery Queen stories: "A Room to Die In" and "Madman Theory".
There is also a copy of the slipcased Ecce and Old Earth (Underwood-Miller) for about £60.
: There were also the UK paperback editions that you'd expect in any UK Bookshop; The Throy books, Lyonesse books .. etc.
I must point out that the Lyoness books are second-hand.
: I think I saw some US paperbacks in the 2nd hand shelves; City of the Chasch (DAW?) was there certainly.
Chuckle; I've cleared out most of the paperbacks that Rog had as I've bought 10 in the last two/three months
He also has a few new copies of the excellent The Grey Prince (VGSF) which you'll have to ask about personally, as they are kept in the back.
Cheers,
