17 Mar 07 Tomes of Good Stuff

Browsing through Books & Co this afternoon, I noticed that struck my fancy – several hardcovers that contained specific trilogies I’ve been interested in reading.  The pricetag for these tomes stood at $35 each and contained three full novels each.  If I’d had the money then and there, I likely would have walked out of the store with at least a couple of them.  It would have given me several books that are on my wishlist for a better price than I would have paid to buy them separately and put them all in the same place and under a quality cover.  This is something that I would love to see more publishers doing on a more regular basis.  I’m not sure how this would affect the income for the authors themselves, but for the reading consumer, it would definitely be a great buy, especially for us hardcover aficionados.
