I wonder why it is that wherever I go, there will inevitably be a copy of Mirage, a copy of the Keep, two or three of The Select, and about five copies of Implant. I have never seen The Tomb grace the shelves of anyplace. Every single other book, except for that one. I think I've mentioned my library has every RJ novel except for The Tomb.
So. Where have ya'll encountered FPW's books, and to what quantity of each?

I'm speaking for the Orange County/Los Angeles County areas of Sunny California where I spend a Saturday morning to late afternoon shopping for my horror needs. I always find several copies of The Select (hardback! mostly book-club), and a few of the Adversary Cycle, which I always buy whether in hardback or softback, as long as they are in very good to excellent condition. Lately, I've come across and purchased three (count 'em, three) copies of Black Wind, First hardback editions. Copies of The Keep, The Tomb, or Nightworld automatically go to eBay and will continue to do so until we get that Repairmanjack Message Board Book Trading Club underway (is anyone working on that? I recall there was some talk in the recent past). I'm a big fan of James Herbert, Graham Masterton, Jack Ketchum, Dennis Etchison (sic), and more than I can list here. I'd be more than happy to trade my extra F. Paul Wilson doubles and triples to the RJ Gang rather than put them on eBay. Give me a hollar when the Trading Club is concretized. Or maybe we could have a trading party at the GU-4? Hmmm....
