That's me! I always curse about the price of Ray Feist's books because they come out in hardcover, but I wouldn't dream of waiting for them to come out in paperback. I am such a sucker for my favourite authors that I'll spend the money no matter what the format.

I think you should get hard back status, but then that's me. I have never subscribed to hard backs being better, its whats inside that counts. Shakespeare inside a paperback is still Shakespeare.
