I love Linda Howard, huge fan. She is one of the best writers in the business. I have read and reread every single one of her books; Open Season is one of my all time favorite reads. Those of you who are familiar with her writing know what an icon this woman is in the romance genre.

This morning, I received an Amazon alert to let me know that Mackenzie’s Mountain is being re-released, and will be for sale starting Jan. 18. “Great,” I thought. Then I looked at the price: 30 dollars. Obviously, I had to do a double take. Then, being a rational woman, I said to self, “Oh, it must be the complete ‘Mackenzie’ series, not just the first book.” So I looked again. Nope. Not the series. Just Mackenzie’s Mountain, which I own in paperback, and all I can say is: I wish I was as thin as that book.

They are re-issuing in large print as that is the only way this tiny book could ever be sold as a hardback; the font must be GIGANTIC.

Thirty bucks for this book is a total rip-off. Unless you are a die hard Linda Howard fan, and/or have a VERY healthy bank account, I would advise you to get the book at the library. Cute new cover though.
