Books! Books! Get them while they're hot!

The book stall at the Rose Crescent side of Cambridge market has clearly got a new batch of used review copies from a local reviewer in. I've picked up a new Greg Egan of which I was previously unaware, Novik's sixth dragon book, the third in Durham's Acacia trilogy, and the seventh of Tchaikovsky's insect books, for a little over twenty pounds. The hoard has not been much picked over.

Yes of course: though it's Temeraire-goes-to-Australia which I thought you'd already read

They often do; he has a mate who is an SF/fantasy reviewer. I used to buy lots of stuff from them when I was CUSFS librarian.
