Gord the Rogue - Where to Purchase
- Thread starter terrya

I am trying to get my hand on a copy of all the Gorde the Rogue books for my dads birthday (only 2 months late hes not easy to buy for) anyone know a reliable retailer i can purchase these from?
after spending months trying in vain to buy them new or find them from my local used book store, i finally purchased them used (in some cases, VERY used) from ebay, amazon, and barnes and noble.
including shipping, it came to about five dollars a book, and after reading the first three books, i definitely think it was worth it.

I would post to the Classifieds section on the Acaeum or Dragonsfoot, since they're pretty old-school oriented.
You can also try www.NobleKnight.com or www.TrollandToad.com too.

This is the kind of thing that would be perfect for release in ebook format, at a cheap price (under $5, Canadian or US).. I find a reference to a sold out Hardcover copy on Chapters.indigo in canada, and several used copies at at least twice the listed price...

It's worth looking at Paperbackswap.com. I recently got a copy of the first book from there.
Edit: I just checked, and Paperbackswap.com has books 1, 2, 3, and 4. http://www.paperbackswap.com/Gary-Gygax/author/?t=aol.

I have a hardcover copy in perfect shape I could let go for a reasonable price if someone wished to PM me about it. (I do mean "reasonable" considering what it goes for on the open market. I'm not just looking to give it away considering its value.) Though the cover is light gray rather than with the bluish tint (must be a odd picture on Amazon), it is this edition here -

I own the original books. I mean 2 first parts published by tsr. And rest of them published by Gygax's company. Paperpacks.
I have been wondering if those 2 tsr books are available too in new format or just later ones? And have there been rewrites, I've only read originals.
Also I own dragon magazine 100 (I think) which had Gord story including Cat Lord.
Has that one been republished anywhere?
I have been thinking of getting these for friend.
My original books are in order
1. saga of old city (tsr)
2. artifact of evil (tsr)
3. sea of death
4. night arrant
5. city of hawks (tells gord's story before two first books)
6. Come endless darkness
7 Dance of demons
(all but first 2 books published by new infinities productions, inc.)
And to your question original "city of hawks" is not really retcon. It tells about Gord's childhood and youth up until saga of old city. So it's more like prequel.
