And I for one really enjoyed CB. :)John Coxhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04391313393222271260noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2233203994322586500.post-89497725655002020042011-12-15T03:51:32.530-08:002011-12-15T03:51:32.530-08:00I too feel the same as above.

Fleming, Amis, Gardner and Benson never had these multiple editions and some of their books are worth a fortune. You can't get rid of the Higson specials for love or money. I will resist.MarkAnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2233203994322586500.post-32404257975467835002011-12-14T14:07:38.985-08:002011-12-14T14:07:38.985-08:00Just wat we need another edition of a soso book.

Isn't Carte Blanche pretty old hat by now? I'd have thought everybody remotely interested in the various special editions - and some seem to have been nothing but a swizzle - would already be equipped by now, seems a bit late for the party.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2233203994322586500.post-81790519832582273792011-12-14T08:15:48.286-08:002011-12-14T08:15:48.286-08:00It seems that, as the books are progressively bad,...It seems that, as the books are progressively bad, the special editions get progressively better.

Now I feel even more burnt on that original limited edition that turned out to be nothing more than the regular first stuck in a flimsy cardboard box.
