OMG! Someone out there actually has a copy of Storm Front by Jim Butcher that has NOT been exposed to cats; cigarette smoke; or moldy mildew!  And I finally GOT IT OFFERED TO ME! I think.

Oh. Still waiting on the other BookSwap member to get back to the computer and either accept or deny the request.  It'll probably be a Deny. It's like, everyone who has this paperback owns a freaking cat, or smokes, or hasn't kept good care of their book and exposed it to mold and mildew. WTH?

EDITED to ADD:

LOL, this is beyond funny. So far approximately 12 offers have been taken back by the book owners because they've just about ALL had cats! Or smokers!  Not to worry. There's *another* waiting for a response by the book owner. We'll see what happens. I'm not urgently wanting this book, btw, it's just on a wish list of mine. I have them all in hardcover; I'm just wanting them in paperback because it's easier to read them that way!

I might have it. If the other falls through, and I do, you can have it.

Thank you for the offer. It's turning into something of a game, really. I have it in hardcopy, but that's heavy to carry on vacation and takes up a lot of room.

I'm realizing that I really *do* prefer paperbacks over the hardcovers! Aside from being cheaper, they're also portable, and if something happens to it, well...no big deal!

If it had been before September, I would've given you mine.

I have an extra copy if you want it. It's a first edition, first print, so it's got the original artwork, but it does have a store stamp from the UBS in it. It's a leftover "pimping copy". *g*

What's the original artwork? There was a different cover?

Take a look here for the new covers.

The new style originally kicked in with Dead Beat, then they went back and redid the first six. My copy is one like this one.

Ohh, good for you! :D
That's one thing I have on my list of things to buy when I get money, the books about Harry Dresden. :D

Forgot to add, I've seen the TV-series but haven't read the books. I've heard they are great though, so I really want to read them. :)
