I'll be flobbered.  Well I suppose the hardbound Harry Potter book is
expensive.  Still #3 given the expense though.  There's an "adult
version" at #6 also.   I guess it's just different jacket covers for
different markets.  I wonder if the sales of both Harry Potter books
were combined, if LiSP would still be #1?  Pretty impressive to be up
that high though, unless there's something about Amazon marketing I
simply don't understand.  BTW that site is showing LiSP for $CA 76.86,
not exactly a deal.
