Tony, I have both of them. . . I have a library of about 300 books, nah, maybe 200. . .

I buy books instead of borrowing from libraries, so I can pass them on. . .

. . . they're yours if you'd like to borrow them. .

email if you're interested. . . .

The past few weeks I've been rereading a bunch of John D. MacDonald's Travis McGee novels from several years back. Currently reading THE GREEN RIPPER. Revisiting MacDonald's books after many years, I'm struck again by just how good of a writer he is. If you like action and adventure written in crisp, observant prose, pick up a few of his paperbacks.

I've also been perusing one of the volumes of the collected works of G.K. Chesterton, a brilliant and thoroughly entertaining writer from the early 20th century.

Also managed to fit in a few comic books.

JDM -- the one and only! McGee was great. My mom is a huge fan, actually has some correspondence between her and John D., and when she finally realized I was slowly stealing her entire collection one book at a time, she just gave the whole thing to me a couple of years ago.

DMV,

From the time I finished Stranger in a Strange Land, I thought it would make a great movie. Disappointing to say the least it hasn't happened
