Power of One

Thanks, Fran. I checked the site, but unfortunately all of the books except this one are currently unavailable. I've bookmarked the site, though, so I can go through it at my leisure.

I've asked Meredith in Calgary to keep an eye out up there, too.

    That's very strange, Kathi, as I just 'pretended' to order one of the other books and it went through fine. Perhaps there's some sort of agreement between bookshops in different countries to stop their citizens from buying overseas. I wonder if Meredith would have the same results as you or me? I don't mind sending copies to you if that's the only way it can be done.
    Cheers, Fran

    ABE Books has lots of reasonably priced copies available -- at least for a Canadian search. I will be interested to hear if the same results show up for an American search. If not, we can talk about me getting them and sending them down...

    Thanks! Apparently the only one of his books that's been published in the US is The Power of One. When I checked with Amazon, the Australian Trilogy was over $150! I'm checking out the site that Jean sent, plus Meredith found one that I can order from, too.

    There is hope! Kathi

    Kathi, Powell's Books in Portland seems to have some:
    http://www.powells.com/s?kw=Bryce+Courtenay&class= If you aren't in a hurry I'd be happy to go check Powell's for you and mail them to you after the holidays. We haven't been to Powell's for awhile and would enjoy an outing. :-)
