You do a bit. :confused: Maybe you should leave it to others to rubbish your work.

I've recently started an experimental real-time self-review of this book:

Just to formalise the position on this thread kindly started by Rog (Calenture):





For your information, Weirdmonger (Prime Books 2003) is now out of print:

ps: I've now thanked a number of people at the above link for this wonderful gig.

Re: Weirdmonger by D F Lewis (2003)
 

Since, putting the 'Weirdmonger' book out of print, booksellers have been gradually depleted of it, I have noticed.
Nobody's rushing (!), but you may regret not buying it eventually.
As far as I can tell, just as a tip-off to any interested out there, the cheapest edition left on the whole book market is shown on Amazon.com as a used copy.

I have six copies left myself that I intend to give away in due course in competitions.
The first such competition is currently being held here:

Re: Weirdmonger by D F Lewis (2003)
 

Since going out of print a few months ago, I note that 'Weirdmonger' (Prime 2003) is now for sale on Amazon, as a the sole copy available, for £460. Used and unsigned:
I own only six unused copies of 'Weirdmonger' (other than my own personal copy) and I intend to offer these gradually as prizes in free competitions - signed by me if required to the winner.
The current competition (still unwon) is here: http://weirdmonger.blog-city.com/fre...ompetition.htm

Re: Weirdmonger by D F Lewis (2003)
 

By comparison, the hardback signed edition of 'Weirdmonger' (limited to 50 copies) is on sale here for only £250:

Glad I got mine while copies were somewhat plentiful a couple years ago. The towering price increases after scarcity sets in are always amazing.

Re: Weirdmonger by D F Lewis (2003)
 

I only read one of D.F. Lewis's stories awhile back and at the time just didn't 'get it' or understand it and didn't bother reading any other stories. The other day by chance I read 'The Water Boatman' on this website and was blown away. Loved it! I just managed to buy an unread copy of Weirdmonger for $19 plus $20 postage to the UK. Am looking forward to diving in....

Re: Weirdmonger by D F Lewis (2003)
 

Thanks, Lucian. Hope you enjoy it.

But I am intrigued where you got it? The only used copies that seem available (other than my few free competition prize ones) have ridiculous prices here:
http://www.fantasticfiction.co.uk/l/...eirdmonger.htm
(The prices for new ones are not applicable as there are no more new ones for sale, being out of print).

If I see any cheaper ones in the future (like Ebay) I shall report back here. Not that I expect many to be interested. :)

Hi Des, I brought it from a shop called Borderlands Books which I found on the World Book Market website. I was abit surprised as the other 2 listings for Weirdmonger on World Book Market were a hardback copy for £250 and another copy for something ridiculous in the region of £400!! When I ordered mine for $19 I was kind of expecting to receive an email and refund stating the book was not available but it turned up in the post a few days ago. Pretty much mint and unread. The bottom of the book was slightly grubby (appears as though it was placed on a dusty shelf) but am pleased with it.
