Nuytsia, I was just browsing eBay and noticed that there's a copy of the Voyager 5 book up for buying... but the starting price is ridiculous, it's GBP 47.00! I paid GBP 5 + shipping for mine, and really it's a softcover leaflet, not a fancy, fat hardback. I'll let you know if I come across a cheaper version.
Not sure if there are any hardcore collectors among us, but:
- a signed US paperback edition of Harpy's Flight - would be nice as this is her first real published book - except it's an ex-library copy so again I think the price is a bit too high
- this is interesting! It's not that unusual to find proof/ARC copies of books, but this is a proof for the covers - the same book, US Harpy's Flight. I've been considering this for awhile, but what they list as international shipping costs is a bit too high for what is essentially a piece of paper. If I had a job, I'd probably cave in though...
