I’ve finally gotten more books than I have room for. I have decided that I will start selling some on eBay again.
In the mean time I have these books I can’t sell, because they still have a lingering scent of mildew. These I will give away as promos. It is up to the winners to figure a way to get rid of the mildew scent.
Just make three comments on my blog on three different posts. When done, use the contact form to send me your snail mail address. Media mail in the US is about a buck a book. If shipping costs too much for crossing a border, I may decide I can’t afford to mail it out. If the book is less than 3/4 inch I can ship it to Canada or Europe quite cheaply, though.
I am starting with three books. The first is a hardcover version from the 70s of Slan by A. E. Van Vogt. The second is a hardcover version of John Varley’s collection Persistence of Vision. I already mentioned Ursula K. LeGuin's Three Hainish Novels: Rocannon's World, Planet of Exile, City of Illusions.
Just make the comments and tell me which book you’d like. First come first serve. One book per week per reader.
The Slan book has the least smell of mildew and the LeGuin the most.
I have about 100 of these books, most of which I’ve read. I will give away as many as I can. If this works out, I’ll start getting rid of my books that don’t smell bad.
