I just won an eBay auction for 10 OSC books, and Legends. I need a few of the books out of the set to finish my collection, but I feel generous right now and therefore offer the following Card novels to be mailed via Media Mail to the first claimants. Please e-mail me, and post your claim, as the first person to respond gets it, unless I happen across another copy of the same book. All books are paperback, and in "Good" condition (for those familiar with bookstore ratings). I'd consider them "reading" or "loaner" copies, until I receive them myself and can check their condition more thoroughly.

The books offered are:

Ender's Shadow
Shadow of the Hegemon
(Claimed) Speaker for the Dead (Claimed)
(Claimed) The Memory of Earth (Claimed)
(Claimed) Enchantment (Claimed)
AND
(Claimed) Legends I (Containing the Grinning Man Alvin Maker short story)(Claimed)

My e-mail is epipsychidion at gmail dot com for those interested in my offer. Hopefully someone can make use of these books, otherwise they're going to the used bookstore for other readers in the Clemson area.

Should I read memory?

Posted by Morbo (Member # 5309) on :

Just emailed a claim for Speaker. I haven't read that in years.

edit:Josh says I bagged Speaker. Thanks, Josh!

And thanks for the quick response.

GoogleTalk tells me in realtime when I receive a message. It's handy when I'm sitting at my laptop anyway. ^_^

I want two of those books but sadly live too far away and am too cheap to pay the extra mailing costs. [Frown]

Posted by GaalDornick (Member # 8880) on :

I'd really like Memory of Earth, so I'll be emailing about that. How much is shipping? And thanks alot for offering these books. Very nice of you.

Posted by Joshua Newberry (Member # 7864) on :

GaalDornick is set to receive MoE. Shipping's on me, via media mail.

cheiros, tell me with an e-mail where you are, and I'll check rates, and see if I can splurge for you.

That's so awesome. You are incredible, Joshua. Thank you so much.

I sent you an email about the Legends anthology. Thank you for doing this. The level of generosity in these forums is amazing.

The books got to me today, so they'll go out again to those who claimed them within the next two days.

Posted by GaalDornick (Member # 8880) on :

Ummmm, has anyone recieved their book yet? I still haven't gotten Memory of Earth.

Posted by theCrowsWife (Member # 8302) on :

Me neither. I was just about to send an email to Joshua and came looking for this thread to verify dates.

*emails now*
