With the NARC novels
Find GMP editions of NARC books at eBay
Copies often change hands there, although it's also true they don't change hands cheaply. In recent years, since the DreamCraft editions have been published, the price of an original GMP Death's Head is around US$80 - $100 ... which is an improvement on the price years ago, then it wa 4-5 times that high! Incidentally, when you buy a Mel Keegan title second hand, via an eBay trader, from a link on this site — Mel Keegan will earn a royalty, which is extremely appropriate. A new window will open; search on 'Mel Keegan,' and you'll see what's available at this time. NOTE: few people auction their MK titles, so the first result in your search results window is almost certainly going to be be '0 results for Mel Keegan.' Don't be deterred: scroll down to the Ebay Stores. At the time of this upload, for example, you could buy four MK titles, including both the GMP editions of Death's Head and Equinox , at very reasonable prices! Happy shopping ... and good luck! (Tell us how you go.)
...Good news for Lynx users. 'Gay fiction's hottest new list' is now completely friendly to text browsers. Obiously, if you're running Flash Player 6 or better, you'll be loading the movies, but if you're here simply to read (or to listen, if you have text to voice software), then you'll enjoy the full benefit of a Lynx-tested site.
