PaperbackSwap, Effinger, and Liavek

[yendi]

Paperbackswap (join using "yendi" as a referral if you'd like) continues to make my life easier, as I ordered George Alec Effinger's The Exile Kiss, allowing me to complete the Budayeen trilogy. Granted, if I'd realized that there was a reprint edition coming out in five months, I might have waited. Then again, I'm not notoriously patient.

Also worth noting: As of this moment, there are three Liavek books available at PBS (the first, second, and fifth).

Liavek is amazing and I'm both dismayed and secretly pleased that it has never beeen reprinted. Mostly because it gives me bragging rights as I own all 5 :)

Added you through a mutual friend because I like your username and the list of blogs you watch. Always was a Brust fan. My username is from Alistair Reynolds' novel "Revelation Space" and is the name of a sentient computer virus/ghosat in the shell that inhabits a translight starcraft, much to the eventual displeasure and occasional dismemberment of the crew.

I'd heard of that novel, but haven't read it myself.

And I share bragging right -- got all five, and have read them multiple times. :-)

I just signed up for it and used you as my referrel. Thanks! It looks like a great idea!

It really is -- I've already gotten three books, and I've sent two books off to other folks. So nifty.
