In much, much better news, A NEW ALEX BENEDICT BOOK IS COMING OUT NOV 2! (Alex Benedict being one of the main characters of the series; the author is Jack McDevitt.) I will happily admit that I love this series as much for the serious Alex/Chase projecting I indulge in as for the all-around awesome writing and plots and intrigue blah blah blah. And I HAVE A NOOK SO I DON'T NEED TO BUY THE DAMN THING IN HARDCOVER WOOT!
