Heh, anyone who reads one of Flynn Eire's books is first treated to an absolutely god-awful screed ordering them to "Buy a Damn Copy" and calling them the worse kind of thief ever if they don't. Which is a joke/challenge to pirates everywhere and also pretty damn rude to people who got theirs by way of libraries and other legit borrowing methods. Dunno how effective it is in stopping illicit downloads -- probably not very as a few minutes on a search engine can probably find plenty of links -- but in my case it's proven quite the deterrent. From ever buying her books, that is. Really, I should pay to be insulted? No, thanks, Ms. Flynn. Plenty of other books for me to spend my money on, yours I'll just leave by the wayside.
