	Very interesting.  That's what Lawrence Watt-Evans did with "The 
Spriggan Mirror," and is doing now with "The Vondish Ambassador."  I 
wonder, though, why Lee&Miller decided to go this route -- LWE did it 
b/c no regular publisher was interested enough to publish any more of 
his Ethshar novels, but he loved writing the books and there were enough 
rabid-- er, I mean, *devoted* fans that he was willing to take a chance. 
    I'd've though that Meisha Merlin would have been jumping at the 
chance to publish *anything* Liaden-related.
