Barnes and Noble for Christmas

Postby vtel57 » 05:51 Tue 15 Dec 09

I've had this $25 gift cert burning the proverbial hole in my figurative pocket since around September. I decided to spend it tonight. As always, I picked out about $80 worth of books and had to weed a few out before checking out. ;)

I ended up getting four brand new Dan Simmons' classic Sci-Fi paperbacks:

Hyperion, The Fall of Hyperion, Endymion, and The Rise of Endymion... Books 1-4 in the Hyperion Series (1989-1997).

Free shipping, too! I did go a wee bit over the gift cert amount though. Had to charge $5.80 on my Visa.

Oh boy! Oh boy! I've been jonesin' for some decent Sci-fi. :nod:

It was DAMNED FAST, actually. Ordered Tuesday night and received on Friday afternoon... three days later. Can't complain about that. :)
