Four different trade paperbacks, from three different sources, one signed.
Clute, John. Sticking To the End. Beccon, 2022. First edition trade paperback original, a Fine- copy with a bump at head. Collection of reviews, essays, etc. Supposedly both Beccon and Clute’s last book. Bought from the publisher at the usual discount. I will have copies available in the next Lame Excuse Books catalog.
Lansdale, Joe R. Born For Trouble: The Further Adventures of Hap and Leonard. Tachyon Press, 2022. First edition trade paperback original, a Fine copy. Bought from the publisher at the usual discount. I have copies of this available through Lame Excuse Books.
O’Leary, Patrick. 51. Tachyon Press, 2022. First edition trade paperback original, a Fine copy. Roswell/Area 51 novel. Bought from the publisher at the usual discount. I have copies of this available through Lame Excuse Books.
Pournelle, Jerry, editor. A Step Farther Out. Ace, 1979. First edition trade paperback original, a Fine- copy with edgewear and slight age-darkening to pages, inscribed by Pournelle: “To Brian & Becky —/Now Eternal —/Jerry Pournelle.” Collection of essays, a few of which are reprinted from That Buck Rogers Stuff from 1977 (which I also have a signed copy of). The very last book from the private collector sale, thrown in as a freebie. I needed to research whether there was a hardback edition; there was, but it came out later in the UK, so this is still the true first.
