So, I realized, that with a possible incipient move, and the fact that Con or Bust will be supporting fans of colour to attend more conventions besides just WisCon, I thought I oughta throw up some more books into the mix.

- QUEEN VICTORIA: DEMON HUNTER by AE Moorat
- Malinda Lo's ASH
- An anthology called WIZARDS
- An anthology called THE GREEN MAN edited by Ellen Datlow and Terri Windling - I enjoyed this anthology hugely, and am very sad to give it up.
- An anthology called THE FAIR FOLK, edited by Marvin Kaye, another favourite.
- An anthology called THE SPACE OPERA RENAISSANCE. Giant thing.
- The Blaft anthology of TAMIL PULP FICTION, translated by Pritham K Charavarthy and edited by Rakesh Khanna. The cover sports a gun-toting, bespectacled lady with flowers in her braided hair and a sari.
- Gabriel Garcia Marquez' STRANGE PILGRIMS anthology, translated by Edith Grossman.
- Malinda Lo's ASH
- A hardcover of MIRRORMASK, the book form of the movie, from Neil Gaiman and Dave McKean.
- An anthology of journalism by women, JOURNALISTAS
- FULL WOMAN, FLESLY APPLE, HOT MOON, an anthology of Pablo Neruda's poems, in both Spanish and English (Spanish on one side, English on the other)
- Dante's INFERNO with Italian text and English translation (like the Neruda antho)

The biggest sacrifice would be Marilyn French's From Eve To Dawn volumes. I love love love love these books, but admittedly i haven't read them in a few years. I was planning on saving them for my future daughter too They'd be great for anybody with girls in their household, as they're really easy to read and SO MUCH FACTS AND FOOTNOTES. I don't know why it's not more easily available.

Anyway. Will post them up as the day goes, I imagine. But they're not terribly special =/ I also have some theory books that might be of interest, especially to the WisConnies, but I dunno.

My current offers are here and here and here.

Could you maybe post them as themed sets?

I could probably put Fair Folk and Green Man in a set, and also Neruda and Marquez in a set. Not sure how I'd theme the others though. I'd definitely be offering the French books as a set, if I end up deciding to do so. Still mulling over it.

The theory books could definitely go into sets. Hmmm....
