We just received 4 double passes to a preview -- tomorrow night -- of the new Stieg Larsson movie. They're on the desk at Main Street. One pass per person. No phone or internet "holds." First come, first served. No nonsense, bribes, or pleading. Purchase appreciated but not required.
700-odd pages of stylish widescreen space opera. Early reviews claim a return to form after last year's deeply disappointing Transition, which, although heavily promoted by Orbit as an "M. Banks" novel, read like a sequel to the much-remaindered The Business, and also, like The Business, wasn't any good.
About 80 different Folio Society titles, heavy on English and ancient history, including some nice multi-volume sets. All with slipcases, as originally issued. Out in New Arrivals up at Main Street right now.
