[] I have been trying to find the Tripods books by John Christopher without much luck -- does anyone out there know the actual titles of these books and the publisher? Are they available in paperback? I've tried the usual shopping mall bookstores, some locals, and my local library with negative results. New Jersey Network recently completed showing the first season of the TV series -- and they don't have the second. I'm hooked. Help!

Are they available in paperback? The titles of the three books are: The White Mountains, The City of Gold and Lead, and The Pool of Fire. I have paperbacks which were published several years ago by Panda (I think) they are classed as juvenile (because of the age of the main characters ?), which may be why they are difficult to find. I heard recently that the BBC were not going to make the third series because of the reception of the first two - perhaps this was a result of putting them in the 'Dr Who slot' (5.30 pm on Saturday) -- Ian W Moor UUCP: seismo!mcvax!ukc!icdoc!iwm ARPA: iwm%icdoc@ucl Department of Computing Whereat a great and far-off voice was heard, saying, Imperial College.
