I can do you Perdido Street Session.

Bending the landscape, Merlin's Wood, The Scar, Excession, When the King Comes Home: little pb
Tales from Earthsea, Light: tpb
Sabriel: original, um, tpb?

But of course it would be best if there are UK folks who can do swaps: luggage might be tight!

[tamaranth.livejournal.com]

I don't like to think of you hauling books all that way for me ... I'll take UK offers first, but see how you go when you're packing!

[tamaranth.livejournal.com]

these were some of the ones you mentioned ...

It may be possible to meet up that first week -- I move on the 16th but will be to-and-froing for a few days. A bag of stuff is being shipped to Croydon to await you, too ...

ok, have Stevermer, Miéville, Le Guin, Griffith&Paget, Harrison. Don't yet know where the Banks is. Am beginning to think that either you really want to get smaller copies of Light, JS&MN or else you want to collect them from Shirley Rd. In fact, I need to post a bunch of stuffs to Croydon, and a bunch of other stuffs to Scotland, ad yet more stuffs to Wales. If I send this lot off to Croydon, too annoying? (It's not too much to stuff in the bag, so do say.)

[tamaranth.livejournal.com]

depends which Mieville -- actually I think I now have UK offers on 'em both, so you could save yourself postage / luggage space!

I'll pop Stevermer, Le Guin (which?), Griffith&Paget, JS&MN, Light into the bag (or possibly into a second bag!) -- don't mind picking up exchanges from Shirley Rd if your hosts don't object to having Books in the house ...

Oh yeah, think I saw a copy of Ares Express as well... damn I need to make a proper catalogue.

[tamaranth.livejournal.com]

catalogues are very depressing. Though it might be handy for your book-buying!

nb bag o' books is travelling to Croydon on Tues, so if you let me know which h/c you want to swap before then, I won't actually have to carry them anywhere. Which, considering the ache from lugging boxes from one room to another, would be good!
