Hey, Ginjer Buchanan at Ace Books,
Nov. 19th, 2011 11:51 pmso hi; I'd like to ask you a question. Why aren't you republishing the Alexei Panshin Starwell, Thurb Revolution, and Masque World books, and giving us the final fourth promised book, The Universal Pantograph, the publishing of which was disrupted by conflicting personalities between the author and the then editor/person/whoever? Surely enough time has passed to have healed some of these wounds. And we have to act soon, or the author won't be in a position to assist.
Seriously, I had these books packed for ten years (not my choice, way too much moving and lack of steady employment, and whatnot), and now that they are unpacked again, I have read them all again and enjoyed them again as much as before.
Seriously, when I first found them in second hand stores, I hunted for fresh new copies to buy as my own. No such luck. Since so many people are writing in similar vein (but I don't think as well), surely these books would sell like hotcakes. *Do* hotcakes sell? I don't know - but these books would. If nothing else, you would tap the market of people like myself who are nursing crumbling paperback copies.
And we were about to get to Nashua, and see Louisa and Gillian again, and everything.
Pretty please? Consider the possibility?
