DB> How much is the Encyclopedia? VM> The newly-released edition of the STE is in hardcover for $50.00. Go VM> to Crown or wait for the inevitable holidays sales and it'll be less. Surely it will come out in softcover. Hm... perhaps it might be picked up by one of the book clubs and be offered as an inducement to join. The Book of the Month Club and their affiliate Quality Paperback Club both offer X-File books, so this should be right up their alley (and I could use some reference books that I've seen in their ads).
