Buy Books & Do Good!

Small Beer Press (Gavin Grant & Kelly Link) is holding a crazy once-in-a-lifetime sale on all its books, in support of Franciscan Children's Hospital in Boston, where their baby - virtual goddaughter to dozens of their loving friends - Ursula Annabelle Link Grant - has been residing for some months.

I'll let them tell you the whole story here.

The sale is here. $1 off their already crazylow prices on orders through Dec. 31, 2009 goes straight to Franciscan Children's. (And if you choose to order anything at full price, the difference also goes to Franciscan!)

All sale books are labeled "Remainder." You want them. They include:

• the limited edition hardcover of my The Privilege of the Sword - yeah, the one on my icon, here! (it's a detail from a Clouet portrait of Charles IX) - reg. price $35, sale/remaindered for $9.95 including shipping!!!

* Interfictions & the new Interfictions 2, both co-edited by our own fair [livejournal.com profile] deliasherman (also available as e-Books, same deal)

* books by Liz Hand, Laurie J. Marks, John Crowley, Geoff Ryman, Joan Aiken, Maureen McHugh, and many others who make life worth living and books worth reading.

Go look. Then give yourself and everyone else a present - including the kids at Franciscan.

ADDED: And while we're shopping - howbout 1/2 off an original Terri Windling painting?

And for those who've been wondering who The Golux is - or where I got those weird quotes at the beginning of Swordspoint ("We all have faults....and mine is being wicked") & TPOTS (“What a gruesome way to treat one’s niece [!]”) - there's a great new edition of my favorite book, also on sale, from NYRB Classics.

The spouse has been notified that many items on this page are fair game for holiday gift giving!

Thank you for the heads up. (And I also love 13 Clocks! Not nearly enough people have read that book.)

Thanks for the post. I'd missed this.

I need my planner!
