374.0. "SF Book Series from Easton Press" by 7195::MACNEAL (Big Mac) Wed Aug 20 1986 15:30

    I have subscribed to a science fiction book series by Easton Press
    (yes, I finally succombed to a junk mail offer :^) ).  So far I have
    been very pleased with it.  They are even promising autographed
    editions of some of the books (Dune was one of them, but they sent me
    an apologetic letter explaining how this couldn't be done because of
    his recent death).  This series is allowing me to get some books that I
    have always wanted in hardcover, and introducing me to some authors I
    have overlooked (Delany, The Einstien Intersection).  The series so far
    seems to be dealing with the classics such as 2001, From the Earth to
    the Moon, and The Black Cloud.  
    
    The books are leather bound and the pages are rimmed in gold (all of
    good quality).  They are $34.95 each and come in the mail about once a
    month.  Each edition comes with a special preface written by someone of
    note in the SF community.  I recommend this series to anyone who would
    like to start a good quality library of SF.
