Update: I received a Royal Post today with a surprise... Heritage of the Star by Sylvia Engdahl. When I was 13 I was given this by my Aunt who was from Britain (war bride) and I LOVED IT. Flash forward to 17 years ago - the city I lived in was one of those CNN disasters (flood) and our entire library of over 2,000 books was destroyed. This was one of the books I've searched for off and on since then.

Thank you Santa!! I am over the moon.

You deserve all the awards :)

I absolutely LOVE my secret santa! Not only did they send me 2 of the books I've been looking for... Starburst by Frederick Pohl and Nova by Delaney.. I also received an AWESOME book 'Masters of Science Fiction and Fantasy Art' AND as an added bonus the dust cover has a series of pictures that unfolds to be a poster. I've been enjoying browsing through this and seeing how the artists made their vision for different books and movies. What an awesome gift :)
