If you sometimes read the book portion of my website, you may remember that in July I read and recommend Elizabeth Bear’s book New Amsterdam.

Did you go pick it up and read it then? No? Too bad. I just looked on Amazon, and copies are selling for $75.

After hearing this, Michael suggested that I sell my copy.

I may have to hide my copy from him, until he forgets this, because New Amsterdam was definitely a keeper. (And here I was waiting for a sequel. Lets hope that outrageous price means the book will go into reprint–and a new book about Abagail Irene is in the works.
