I'm just a dandelion

If a $50 paperback is selling I've not seen dime one from it. Don't get me wrong it would be nice but....yikes. :-)

Wow! Aussies pay that kind of premium price for paperbacks?? Crazy!

I could understand it better if it was a 3D-illustrated, signed and numbered edition. Throw in a companion CD/DVD featuring an interview with the author, reminiscences with colleagues, and an interactive tour of his house and secret underground lair in surround sound... :P

Absolutely not!

Trade paperback (they're the small ones...right): $19.95AU (approx $16US), the larger style of paperback about $26.95 (approx $20US)...got to a big department store and it's usually 30% off recommended retail.
