Laurie's star power sold them.

(though i think an indonesian bookseller is looking to set up here). <br /><br />we do need to strengthen literary ties with our neighbours ...<br /><br />anyway, your question begs another ... what prompted you to ask it?bibliobibulihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16456636355933524132noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7912730.post-44024730658873028452009-04-14T23:09:00.000+08:002009-04-14T23:09:00.000+08:00I've read The Gun Seller - it's not bad lah for a ...I've read The Gun Seller - it's not bad lah for a first novel.
