books: SCORE

Just had a Fine/Fine 1st edition of Martin's Game of Thrones come in over the counter.

I've got a couple of copies I snagged off the B&N sale table years ago, but they're in storage...this one will look nice on the shelf next to my 1st of Terry Goodkind's first book and my 1st of The Great Hunt by Robert Jordan.

Yeah, yeah...it's the second book in the series...but I've never even seen the 1st book in hardcover, let alone a 1st edition.

Scarcest modern fantasy/sf book I own:

A signed 1st of Snow Crash by Neal Stephenson. It's an ex-library copy, but given it had a print run of 600 copies I'm not complaining.
