eliyesToday, on the way home, the sci-fi bookstore that is never open when I'm in the area WAS OPEN and lo! did I enter into its badly-carpeted embrace.
I bought eleven books. 8D
Only one of them is for someone else. X3
Yaaaaaay!
eta: The actual books I got (not counting the gift one):
Diane Duane's Deep Wizardry, High Wizardry, and Wizard's Holiday. edit:(Still haven't found the first book, alas.) Got the first book and was pleasantly surprised to find out Kit is younger than Nita and skipping grades. :3 Somehow didn't catch that in the later stuff. Currently stuck in the early bits of High Wizardry because I'm having trouble hacking Dairine.
Chris Claremont's First Flight and Sundowner -- I already have the middle book of this trilogy. I mostly got them because I want to see how Shea met the cat-people-aliens in the first place, and also to see if there's anymore X-Men easter eggs. ;3 eta: There was a Guthrie. X3 And more Lila Cheney -- though not in the same place, sadly. The end made NO sense whatsoever.
Bruce Sterling's Heavy Weather. It's Bruce Sterling. It's weather hackers. It was half price! ;3 eta: It was actually really interesting! I may do a crossover with *coughsoemthingRictor'sincough*
Walter Jon Williams' Hard Wired, which looks like enjoyably bad neon cyberpunk. :D
James White's Final Diagnosis and Mind Changer, which both bear the subtitle "A Sector General Novel". They are one after the other, but there are nine books before them. X3 I've never seen these before! eta: Interesting! I liked FD better, I think, mostly because panicky Patient Hewlitt and his ridiculously healthy cat and the miracles... Yeah. It was like watching an episode of SGA, in a very weird way...
Lois McMaster Bujold's Miles, Mystery & Mayhem (apparently a compilation of Cetaganda, Ethan of Athos, and "Labyrinth"). I bought this because people used to always tell me that since I like Elizabeth Moon, I'd probably like this author, and I figured I might as well pick up something big enough to judge by. eta: Looks like they were right! This was really enjoyable.
Lester del Rey's Rocket Jockey. Sometimes you gotta. :3
