"Wow, how'd that happen?"

I was checking out used copies of the first one on Amazon and they were all around $7-8 and then I saw that one for 0.17. Apparently it's the box set that's been revised somehow that isn't too popular with fans of the series but I didn't care at that price (shipping was only like 2.99). It's brand new too.

I'm thinking whoever the seller was meant to make it $17.00 and misplaced a decimal After I ordered it, I was afraid just the empty box for the box set was going to show up

They only revision that happened was to The Gunslinger, which King went back to and added some stuff to make it flow better with the rest of the series.

oh okay then, I was just going off some of the reviews I saw on Amazon. I think the same user was also just pissed King used the same introduction for each book

looks like I got a HELL OF A DEAL then

The Black Jewels by Anne Bishop. started off as a trilogy but then just kind of... kept going. its fantasy fiction, so it's not everyone's cup of tea i suppose but i love love love them.

If you're into vampires/werewolves/fucking book porn then the Anita Blake series. there are 203984209384 of them at this point and after about the 8th they're just sex sex sex but..... they started out pretty entertaining

"Left Behind"

Seriously?

As a kid: The Tripod Series, Goosebumps

Now: Harry Turtledove's American Empire series, Arthur C. Clarke's Rama and 2001 series, and while they haven't all come out yet, I can't put down the series of late 20th century American history books by Rick Perlstein (Before the Storm, Nixonland, more to come).
