# hurry, i'm running out of things i want my library to buy.
they don't have any of the herbert rat books (crap horror lit) we were chatting about on /board a while back. i tried to reserve them and they're all being frozen in the reference library for some freakish reason.

# ahhhhhahah
 
yeah, I remember those.
they have a shit lit reference section?

Unfortunately the original Wain books have never been reprinted, else I'd buy 'em for my niece & nephew.
The more recent collections will have to do.

# i'm unaware of it.
i saw the titles online and when i went to reserve them, it was not permitted.

also, i have to mention to cockweasle that there are four books in the series, not three - apparently the last is a comic bookgraphic novel.

edit: never been reprinted? that's just weird.
