, I think my last pleasant surprise was back in '94 when I found "Throy"
: in pb on the Mall's B.Dalton bookshelves.
Well, for corn's sake, kid! Try shopping in a real bookstore, or try one of the many excellent mail order services,
like Mark Ziesing, Chris Drumm, etc. Check in the back of an
issue of Locus or SF Chronicle. There are a ton of great dealers
out there who have the books you're looking for. Every time you
buy from a huge chain (B. Dalton, Waldenbooks, Barnes and Noble)
you are stabbing a knife into the back of an independent dealer,
the very ones who are best able to serve you! Spend a little effort to find them, and the effort will be well spent! That goes for all of you!
