Just out of curiosity, what are the chances of someone volunteering to make a file containing descriptions of a large number of the New Xanth stuff? It'd be REAL helpful in determining whether or not I want to get something. For example, there is a file, uploaded on 29 November, called usenet/comp.binaries. amiga/volume90/util/lome-1.1/part03.Z.
