Book trade.

[Marko Rodriguez]

Hello,

Does anyone read Greg Egan (Australian Sci-Fi author)? If so, does  
anyone have any of his books that are NOT:

Permutation City
Teranesia
Schilde's Ladder

Most of his books seem to be out of print and are super expensive on  
Amazon. If anyone would like to do some book trading for Greg Egan,  
it would make me happy.

Thanks,

Try powells.com.

If you aren't set on owning, your library has the best price of all.  
And if they don't have
a particular title, they will get it from another library somewhere.

fwiw, looks like Mesa public library in Los Alamos has it on the shelf.

1) Go to http://www.santafelibrary.org
2) Put in "egan greg" in the catalog quick search with Author
3) Then click on WorldCat icon at the bottom of the page
4) Click on a title you want
5) enter your zip code in the "Enter Location Information" box
6) Click on "Book" link for a desirable location

If you have Santa Fe library card, you have one sent to a Santa Fe
branch, but you'd have to call.

Alas, not in any place accessible right now, but if you're an Egan fan,
you might already know about his site,
http://gregegan.customer.netspace.net.au/SMFrame.html  - Baez is also a
fan and occasionally does commentary on his work -

I do not believe I have any Greg Egan myself, however, my good friend &
Colleague in the UK, Susan Stepney has quite the collection and is a
Greg Egan fan.
http://www-users.cs.york.ac.uk/susan/sf/books/e/egan.htm

For any other Science Fictioneers out there, I highly recommend her
reviews... she is extremely widely read in Science Fiction and is also a
complexity scientist herself, formerly working at Logica a bit of a
British version of Bios .   She is now a professor at U. York and has
quite the entertaining list of grad student projects, etc.   She and I
are ostensibly working on working on a paper that might evolve into a
book on Cellular Automata and beyond!

Along with Amazon and Powell's, I also recommend Alibris (www.alibris.com).

None of this solves the problem that Egan's work is mostly over 10 years
old, out of print and expensive... I *will* keep my eyes open for Egan
whom Susan has recommended to me many times.

Hi Marko, I have a copy of Diaspora and Luminous (short stories).

I live in Australia so it is not a trivial effort to get the books to you,
but lemme know what you want to do. They could be FedExed for a couple of
tens of dollars.

Cheers,
Saul

Hi Marko,

if you can wait half a year Gollancz science fiction is bringing out a
lot of Greg Egan books in February 2008 -

http://www.orionbooks.co.uk/search-book-Sci-Fi-and-Fantasy.htm

(and they have a lot of other worthwile SF so you don't get bored during
the wait ;-)

Regards,
G?nther
