We're having a used book sale to try to reduce our supply. All used books will be 20% off, whether you have a discount card or not. The sale includes used paperbacks, used hardcovers, used magazines, used gaming books, and bagged books. Because we have so many used audiobooks, we will be selling all used audiobooks at $5.00 each, whether cassette or CD. The sale runs from Friday, September 7, through Sunday, September 16. That gives you two weekends to take advantage of the sale. This sale will be for customers shopping in the store–it does not apply to mail orders. If you're thinking about bringing in lots of used books to sell to us during the sale, expect a longer than normal wait. Author Events (at Uncle Edgar's) Monday, August 27, 5-6pm: William Kent Krueger - Trickster's Point Author Events (at Uncle Hugo's) Tuesday, September 18, 5-6pm: Larry Correia - Monster Hunter Legion Saturday, November 3, 1-2pm: Lois McMaster Bujold - Captain Vorpatril's Alliance Holiday Schedule Monday, September 3: Closed Thursday, November 22: Closed How's Business?

Don Pendleton’S the Executioner®
It was time to take his leave Mack Bolan increased the Mustang’s speed, determined not to let Guerra’s men get away. Inside the large, nylon bag on the seat next to him was an arsenal of assorted weapons for making war. Bolan raced toward the carnage ahead of him and slammed on the brakes at the last moment, swinging his vehicle around to the outside of the sedan as he reached into the bag and withdrew the MP-5. He depressed the trigger and swept the vehicle. The bodies of the gunners danced under the massive assault. Bolan then yanked an M-67 high- explosive grenade and tossed it casually into the interior, before putting the Mustang in Reverse and backing out. The blast produced enough force to lift the car an inch or two off its wheels and settle it back to the pavement in a roaring crash. That would teach Mario Guerra a lesson—make him realize he and his Hillbangers weren’t quite as invincible as they had thought. And Guerra would learn one more thing very soon.… The Executioner was just getting started.
