the Richmond VA area's premiere store for mystery and science fiction
is in financial distress. An auction is being organized to help save
this landmark independent bookstore.

Come for books, sugar-laden treats, and door prizes.
Who's Involved: In short, over one hundred authors from across the
country contributed to the dozen fabulous raffle prizes to be given
away on the 31st. This event will be the culmination of a month-long
contest in which customers will earn a raffle ticket for every $25
they spend during the month of January. (This includes phone
customers). Weekly prizes will also be given away. These prizes will
include signed books from authors in the field of mystery, fantasy,

including goodies from Joanne Fluke, a Tiffany necklace and much,
much more.
I've offered to donate an autographed complete set of 5 hc Merlin's Descendants books. These are now out of print in hc. This is my last complete set.
