A few days ago I bought 'Retief and the Pangalactic Pageant of Pulchritude' while at a local store. Imagine my surprise when I got 77 pages into this book and the story named above ended and the rest of the book (over 200 pages) was a reprint of 'Retief's Ransom'. Rechecking the book I found that front cover didn't mention this, nor did the inside blurb. The back cover doesn't say anything about this until the very last line (right above the barcode), where it says "Plus: the full-length novel, Retief's Ransom". Unless you haven't read 'Retief's Ransom' I would advise you to pass up this book. -- Joel Upchurch @ CONCURRENT Computer Corporation (A Perkin-Elmer Company) Southern Development Center 2486 Sand Lake Road/ Orlando, Florida 32809/ (305)850-1031 {decvax!ucf-cs, ihnp4!pesnta, vax135!petsd}!peora!joel
