I don't read much sci-fi or fantasy. Tom Send a noteboard - 17/02/2011 11:05:55 PM
I'll read the last Wheel of Time book by inertia, of course, and I plan on getting around to Way of Kings at some point. The only other thing I can think of buying in the genre that would come out in the next couple of years is Dance with Dragons if that ever gets finished.
Political correctness is the pettiest form of casuistry.

ἡ δὲ κἀκ τριῶν τρυπημάτων ἐργαζομένη ἐνεκάλει τῇ φύσει, δυσφορουμένη, ὅτι δὴ μὴ καὶ τοὺς τιτθοὺς αὐτῇ εὐρύτερον ἢ νῦν εἰσι τρυπώη, ὅπως καὶ ἄλλην ἐνταῦθα μίξιν ἐπιτεχνᾶσθαι δυνατὴ εἴη. – Procopius

Ummaka qinnassa nīk!

Would you shop at a small bookstore that sells only SciFi/Fantasy books? Dark Knight - 17/02/2011 09:39:39 PM 870 Views
They exist. *NM* TaskmasterJack - 17/02/2011 09:48:55 PM 261 Views
Do you have an example? *NM* Dark Knight - 17/02/2011 09:54:27 PM 264 Views
There is at least one in Edinburgh Camilla - 17/02/2011 10:16:45 PM 638 Views

Not to nitpick, but... Legolas - 17/02/2011 10:26:07 PM 629 Views
Virtually every comic book store in the country is essentially "only fantasy/sci-fi". Tom - 17/02/2011 10:38:55 PM 594 Views
Yes I would shop at such a store/Will it survive? The answer is no. *NM* Roland00 - 17/02/2011 09:51:09 PM 275 Views
But I would thank you for shopping anyways *NM* Dark Knight - 17/02/2011 09:55:03 PM 278 Views
Think of it like this Roland00 - 18/02/2011 12:26:35 AM 734 Views
Note I want you to know I ain't trying to stomp on your dream. *NM* Roland00 - 18/02/2011 12:27:13 AM 280 Views
Yeh, I would. Craig - 17/02/2011 10:07:44 PM 811 Views
I would shop in place like that. Bergioyn - 17/02/2011 10:12:37 PM 600 Views

Bakka Phoenix Books. Chas - 17/02/2011 10:27:56 PM 811 Views
You'd probably want to add in RPGs and some SFF merchandise Isaac - 17/02/2011 10:35:10 PM 706 Views
I'm not sure if that stuff in your sig has been there long, but... Legolas - 17/02/2011 10:45:20 PM 580 Views
Yeah, it should read Landsraad Isaac - 17/02/2011 11:18:31 PM 618 Views
I was thinking the same thing. I would like to sell some swords and things like that *NM* Dark Knight - 17/02/2011 10:49:23 PM 268 Views
I gather those tend to sell poorly Isaac - 18/02/2011 12:11:09 AM 600 Views
hold Magic the Gathering tournamnets and call it a comic book store *NM* random thoughts - 18/02/2011 04:04:27 PM 251 Views
Could it survive? Of course. Would I shop there? Not in a million years. *NM* Tom - 17/02/2011 10:37:03 PM 270 Views
Lol why not? *NM* Dark Knight - 17/02/2011 10:48:10 PM 260 Views

Maybe just under-exploited? Isaac - 18/02/2011 12:31:26 AM 892 Views
Add roleplaying, toys, comics, movie merch and you'd hardly get me outta there *NM* ironclad - 17/02/2011 10:52:04 PM 268 Views
Add the entire nonfiction genre and i would never leave. Avendesora - 18/02/2011 12:52:14 AM 663 Views
Maybe add a couple of other genres to it. Literature, mystery &suspence, historical fiction at least Tashmere - 18/02/2011 02:28:20 AM 566 Views
