You would think, after a year, I would have written off the local english language bookstore. But no, I had to go in looking for ANYTHING new to read.......

And took a look at their "Science Fiction - Fantasy" series, which is usually 100% Robert Jordan, though occasionally you can find Terry Brooks in there as well.

It's now 60% Robert Jordan and 40% Jean Auel

Gahhh.

I'm amazed they can even *sell* Jean Auel in an Islamic country. Some of those books are protoporn........

Admittedly, Auel is a bit of a guilty pleasure for me, for all I joke about the main character eventually inventing the wheel, the electric light, the internal combustion engine, and nuclear fusion........

An ancestor of Honor Harrington and Leonard of Quirm, no doubt.

metaquotes had a funny on Jean Auel today, by the way.

I used to have a friend who owned a used bookstore. One of our 'in' jokes was "Who gives a hoot about Jean Auel"

Yeah, we were wild and crazy back then... ^_^
