Unfortunately, it appears that a lot of the authors I'm after are either Penguin or RH too 'cause so far I'm not seeing significant price reductions for James Patterson, John Sanford, and a bunch of the other folks that are on my 100+ book list of "would like to get these, but absolutely refuse to pay the
ridiculously high prices". And after his whining rant, I've added Scott Turow to the list of "not interested in buying at any price" list.
Recently, William Kent Krueger spoke at our local library. I wish I'd known in time to attend. I've read many of his books, and I'd have liked to ask why he was SPEAKING at an institution he and his publisher (as I understand it, Simon & Schuster typically refuses to sell ebooks to libraries) refuse to support by making his ebooks available there...
