Still bitter from yesterday's visit to Barnes & Noble in San Antonio, 100s of STAR TREK books, yet not one book from either Cory Doctorow or Harlan Ellison.
Sounds like a Borders to me. I had to take the display copy of Little Brother the day it came out... and they never restocked. Signed up for Amazon Prime a week later.

Burns me up. I had to settle for CALVIN AND HOBBES.
- Steven Perez
Steven, you make CALVIN& HOBBES sound like a bad thing, but they're great.

Oh, I know, J. But you have to realize how far down the list they were. After all, I've owned every C&H book ever published, with the exception of the recent HC volumes.

if i want any Harlan Ellison i have to go to a used book store. oh, wait, i already have everything he ever did. NEVER MIND.

Harlan Ellison DID write an episode of the original Star Trek called "The City On The Edge Of Forever". i think it won an Emmy back in the day. time travel accident on an alien world and Joan Collins gets run over by a truck and killed at the end.

And the screenplay is a book. Just not an official STAR TREK book. Which I already own. BACK TO THE POINT.
- Steven Perez
Yeah, Harry Harrison is hard to find too at Barnes & Nobles. Good thing we have Powell's and Amazon.

I'm almost afraid to go check out Borders. I have a feeling the result would be the same.
- Steven Perez
It's sad how hard it is to find all the Stainless Steel Rat books, not to mention the Bill Galactic Hero books.
