Paul,
And why does all the spine art not match up from one book to the next (trade paperbacks)? It bugs the heck out of me when I look at them all lined up on my shelf. On some your name is under the title, on others its under the block and written so you can read it while it's standing up. The main colour of the book is in the bar at the top, but on others it doesn't match. And all the main picture blocks are uneven. The black doesn't line up, even at the bottom. Why?

Why is Conspiracies the only RJ novel that doesn't have the new design. I've collected all the other FPW first printings, but I really like the unified design of the new ones. I would like to collect those as well, but I can't seem to find a Conspiracies that matches.

Sounds like a book. The Millionaire Collector. About a millionaire with obsessive-compulsive disorder. His book spines have to line up exactly and match or it drives him nuts. He buys out entire press-runs so they will HAVE to reprint the book to match. And they better do it right, because if not...

...he has murder in mind.

...they're coming to take him away, ha ha!
