Aside from one or two exceptions, I can get all of the KJP books through that vector, and my "first taste" cost me less than a day's worth of clicking.

I'm normally not much for classic fantasy, but I'll give it a shot under these conditions...
That's really interesting to hear. I'm a fan of Tom Holt (and have been for almost 30 years, ever since Expecting Someone Taller was published) and I had no idea he wrote under a pseudonym. Please let us know what you think of the K.J Parker books - I'm off to have a look now.
