We have that same edition of Brave New World here - my wife repurchased it after we read it in Literature class.

I actually just read Brave New World for the first time about a week ago. Somehow I missed it in Jr High/High School. Definitely an awesome book deserving of its classic status.

Was up slightly north of town and found an encroaching Books A Million. Entered warily expecting the normal mainstream bookstore pricing nonsense but good God do they have some sales! Picked up The Rum Diary and The Brother Karamazov new for under six bucks. :O

wow great deals.

i haven't bought any myself recently but for my birthday i recieved two books. a comedy poem collection "written" by cats called "I Could Pee on That", and The Edge of the World by Kevin J. Anderson. never heard of the fantasy one but the description sounds interesting so i'll give it a shot.

Kevin Anderson writes well on the Star Wars universe, and I've read a couple of his non-Star Wars books. Not sure what series that is.

He did the Rogue Squadron novels didn't he? Was a huge fan of those.

Yeah, he did a few of the Rogue Squadron novels. Those were fantastic, and I've re-read most of the entire series numerous times.

Let's see...
Pratchett - you suck
Shadowrun - you suck
Battletech - you suck
Redwall - own it.
Star Wars - own them all, but still suck since I need a replacement for one of the Corellia books.
