After building up a library for last dozen years, the prospect of having to shlep it all elsewhere come my next house move fills me with horror, and I'm seeking to thin it a bit. (Okay, I'll confess I'm pretty hopeless at actually taking books off the shelf to discard; the discard pile is tiny compared to what remains, but it's better than nothing.) Would anyone like to claim any of the following, before I take the rest to charity shops?
  • Gregory Benford, Tides of Light
  • David Zindell, The Wild
  • Maggie Gee, The Ice People
  • George R.R. Martin, A Game of Thrones
  • Jack Kerouac, On the Road
  • Graham Greene, The Third Man and The Fallen Idol
  • Jeffrey Carver, From a Changeling Star
  • James Boswell, The Life of Samuel Johnson
  • Jules Verne, Five Weeks in a Balloon and Around the World in Eighty Days
  • James M. Cain, The Postman Always Rings Twice
  • Flann O'Brien, At Swim-Two-Birds
  • Rudyard Kipling, Puck of Pook's Hill
  • R.M. Silverman, Baruch Spinoza: Outcast Jew, Universal Sage
  • Richard Dawkins, The Blind Watchmaker
  • Joan D. Vinge, The Snow Queen
  • Mark Henry, Happy Hour of the Damned.
  • John Gale, Teach Yourself Pottery
  • Theodore Stugeon, The [Widget], the [Wadget] and Boff / Isaac Asimov, The Ugly Little Boy
  • Xiao Jian, Chestnuts, and other stories
  • Miguel Cervantes, Don Quixote
  • Nosson Scherman (IIRC—I have to locate this volume!), The Gabbai's Handbook
  • Ed. Jonathan Sacks, Tradition and Transition: Essays Presented to Chief Rabbi Sir Immanuel Jakobovits to celebrate twenty years in office
  • The Italian Job
  • Tron: Legacy
Also, [livejournal.com profile] rysmiel, you told me many years ago about a shop in Islington that takes old SF magazines. Do you remember where this shop is, and whether it still exists?
