I still haven't read this, but I have just bought 2 books when I probably shouldn't have, so I have to pass on this one.

The most merciful thing in the world, I think, is the inability of the human mind to correlate all its contents. ... The piecing together of dissociated knowledge will open up such terrifying vistas of reality, and of our frightful position therein, that we shall either go mad from the revelation or flee from the light into the peace and safety of a new dark age.

How about this one Jimbow-

Is it just me, or is anyone else bothered by Barry Hoffman at Gauntlet putting his own ARCs on Ebay?

If you want to read it, I've got it and will let you borrow it. I trust you.

He tells me about it in advance. Says it's free publicity. Well, hell, he's had 22 hits so far. Whoa.

Yeah, the power of ebay. It's like throwing a fishing line into a cow pond and catching a 20lb catfish. Amazing!

He might get better publicity by actually promoting the book and sending the ARCs out to reviewers and booksellers, you know, so they can sell them on Ebay.
