I have a feeling the same thing applies to these sci-fi reads.

And of course the classic Dune covers. 😍<br /><br />Baz found a hardcover bind-up of the the first Dune trilogy when we were in B&N, but I waited for Cyber Monday and ordered it online with the discount and saved $9. Then I added a stocking stuffer for Baz and got free shipping. You can't beat that. There is no way my 80s paperbacks can ever be read again. I should buy a little display box for them.

Also I cannot say Ganymede in my head unless it is in Gunny's accent. So that's a problem. And Planet Of No Return<br />is just plain appealing- pretty, while being sci-fi.
