To think that when I began buying s-f paperbacks in the 1950s, the average price was 35¢ or 50¢. $7.99 is now the norm for a "cheap paperback". Since public libraries tend to not get paperback novels, you had best bite the bullet and buy this before it goes out of print.
By the way, I e.mailed this review to Paul Kidd. He replied that the publisher has edited out all of the snarky footnotes he had put into the text.
