I have to be awake in a few hours.

So why am I still up?

I have been searching, for about two years now, to replace a book I lost a while ago. It's out of print. Mass market (maybe $7us originally) by Eve Forward. Villains By Neccessity. I can't find it anywhere. Not in any of the used shops up here. Not online. Nowhere.

Well, OK. I can find it, just not at an affordable price. I refuse to pay 30 bucks for a paperback book. I've seen as high as 125 for a hardback.

so...

Your mission, if you choose to accept it is, while you are all out and about this shopping season if you happen to see it in a used bookstore, have them hold it and let me know. I will send you the cash for it. Plus shipping. I want this book again. Email me owlknight68(at)yahoo.com.

*crossing my fingers*

Edit: rosebee has a copy! WOOT!!

Villains By Necessity? Hmmmm.... that title sounds familiar...

Well, whadda ya know? Guess what I found!

Anyone who's been searching for a book for that long deserves to have it more than someone who can barely remember the last time she pulled it off her bookshelf, dusted it off and read it.

I bought the book a while ago, kept it 'cause I liked it and thought I'd end up rereading it a lot the way I do with my favorite books. I never ended up doing that.

One question, though. Why in the world is it being sold for so much?

Email me your address & I'll send it to you. Do a good deed for someone else, and that's payment enough for me.
