Actually, *some* won't be released until April 16 (Volumes 5, 6, 7, 8, 9) and April 23 (Volumes 10, 11, 12, 13).
Haven't really read much Sturgeon, but I've picked up the first two volumes. |

I'm afraid it didn't to Sturgeon, unless you apply the concept of anything less than a masterpiece of the American literature as "crap"....
As to the novels, there weren't many. 5 science fiction novel and one historical novel. (And the most acclaimed of them all was actually 3 linked novellas...Sturgeon was mainly a short story writer. |

I thoroughly enjoy Sturgeon's work. I look forward to buying all of these.
(If anyone has any fat, white volumes to donate to my library, I would be happy to take them off your hands.) ADDED: Looking at Vol. 1, it appears to be scanned in. Can anyone verify this? Don Last edited by Dr. Drib; 03-13-2013 at 10:36 AM. |

SF Gateway has done them, but they don't have the rights for the US or Canada.
