Just yesterday I bought signed Last Argument Of Kings: The First Law: Book Three: Book Three of the First Law (Hardcover)
by Joe Abercrombie. (I don't care about signature i just could not find a hardback for a decent price and I won one on ebay ) A few days ago I bought the first two HPs special UK editions for collection. A few weeks ago I bought The Silmarillion 30 anniversay UK edition However, these books are almost the last printed books I buy. I will buy the rest of special UK HPs. 1 or 2 special editions of Hobbit (I am after Easton Press Edition for a decent price). I bought Last Argument Of Kings only because I had the first 2 books and I wanted the last one to finish the series. In the not so distant future (hopefully) I will buy 2 more books from Malazan world to finish the series. Probably a few books from A Song of Ice and Fire until it is finished if ever. The last book in WoT if it ever will be published. Cannot think of anything else? |

Until publishers start filling in the series I'm just going to have to practice more self-control. Unless I'm just in love with a book I am going to try to avoid pbooks. I have been so thrilled about carrying hundreds of books around at once, and archiving them on a thumb drive or CD, that the thought of bringing a pbook into the house makes me sort of sad. It's like having a car accident and getting stuck with one of those cheesy little rental cars for the week. Not that I slouch down in my seat, pull down the brim of my hat and pull up the collar of my jacket when reading a pbook or anything. Not normally, anyway. |
