I had a successful book-buying run at Bookman's in Mesa yesterday, picking
up some stuff that I'd been having trouble finding.  I wish I lived closer
so that I could check it more often.  My finds included:

_Conflict of Honors_ by Lee & Miller
_Carpe Diem_ by Lee & Miller
_How Like A God_ by Brenda Clough
_Secret of the Sixth Magic_ by Lyndon Hardy
_Riddle of the Seven Realms_ by Lyndon Hardy

I'm not actually claiming any of these are extraordinary finds, but I'd
never seen them in new or used bookstores before.  In particular, I'd been
on the lookout for the Clough book because she's a fellow LSH fan.

A book that I bought yesterday that I know is common, but I'd never been
able to find in anything other than Baen's cheesy hardback form is _On
Basilisk Station_ by David Weber.

Anyone have any comments on these books that might help me prioritize how
to read them?

Anyone else had any particularly productive runs at an Arizona used
bookstore lately?
