I suspect "lower costs" may be relative to new hardcovers or something. But they're calling these "classics" so I have no idea what their motivation is beyond meeting a demand for backlist books out of hardcover for some time. It's been twenty one years since the last hardcover printing of Magician (save the Barns & Nobel hardcover reprint of the Bantam '92 which lingered quite a bit longer--years--than the original publication target of six months).
Which does beg a minor question for book collectors and REF. Are there many "non classic" (for some vague definition of that term) Sci-Fi/Fantasy that get hardcover reprints?
I might actually have to pass on this one. I probably shouldn't get any more hardcover editions of Magician--but I'll sure be thinking about getting one... :D
