OH!!!! Ben, you said you're moving to the Twin Cities, right? If so, you _absolutely_ must go to Uncle Hugo's Science Fiction Bookstore. http://www.unclehugo.com/prod/
The place is a dump, but their selection is amazing. And they've got loads of used books. I used to feed my fix there regularly. Heck, I even managed to find used, perfect condition copies of first edition, signed William Gibson books there once! -Kevin > -----Original Message----- > From: Ben Doom [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] > Sent: Thursday, July 24, 2003 10:04 AM > To: CF-Community > Subject: RE: RE: RE: RE: The Grand List of Overused Scie nce > Fictio n Cl ic h� s > > > There's a bookstore in Lexington (jo-beth, if you're > interested) which carries all three pretty regularly. > There's a branch in Cinci and another somewhere else which, I > suppose, both carry them. > > I love that store. > > > -- Ben Doom > Programmer & General Lackey > Moonbow Software, Inc > > : -----Original Message----- > : From: Dana Tierney [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] > : Sent: Thursday, July 24, 2003 10:27 AM > : To: CF-Community > : Subject: Re: RE: RE: RE: The Grand List of Overused Scie > nce Fiction Cl > : ic h� s > : > : > : I find it hard to find, short of actually subscribing (tho > I used to and > : might again).
