Nor should you. I can see why you'd be leery about something like that.

Nodding. I do most of my reading on the computer, but I do still read
some of my NY favorites in print. Anything else I purchase in print is
a collector's copy.

Good plan. Before Piers started writing on UNDER A VELVET CLOAK, the
newest Incarnations of Immortality book, he polled his newsletter
readers to see how many would be interested in Nox's book, after such
a long break from the rest of the series. The numbers were
overwhelming in support, so he started working on it. It never hurts
to ask the readership you have established for input, IMO.
