I just placed a big order with a book club (two, actually; about 12-14 books in all), but I will refrain from listing those here until they arrive. I also did two bookstore trips.
A few highlights of purchases from the last week includes:
Self-explanatory, I think.
I'm not sure how dry this one will be, but the bits I skimmed looked promising.
Philip K. Dick is genius. Sadly, I have none of his short story collections. This will rectify that.
The premise really grabbed me, plus it's a genre "classic" I have yet to get to.
Yesterday I dropped by a great used bookstore and picked up the following:
MALAFRENA - Ursula Le Guin
LUCIFER'S HAMMER - Niven & Pournelle
THE TOWERS OF TORON - Samuel Delaney
CITY OF A THOUSAND SUNS - Samuel Delaney
STARSHIP TROOPERS - Big Bob H.
DAMNATION ALLEY - Roger Zelazny
THE ANDROMEDA STRAIN - Mikey C.
CHARIOTS OF THE GODS - Erich Von Danken
Total price? $12
I put back another half-dozen books, since I was dipping into my gas money.
I also got a 20-volume Golden Book Encyclopedia set from 1989 for $15. Yay!
