NotesChime and Iron Council will be revisited in June. There is still interest in Ian M. Banks as well.
I added a link to Positron Chicago under "Resources" on the Links page of the TG blog.
Oof! Only one copy of Forty Thousand in Gehenna at the CPL (and it's out) and no eBooks, that I can see. Start looking for used copies, folks! I think this one is out of print.
Looks like CPL still has one copy of the reprint, Alliance Space...
Not anymore they don't. Because I snagged it! BWAAAHAAAHAAA! (Of course, we'll have to wait and see if it arrives to my branch in time. I'll keep hitting the used bookstores, too, though!).
40k in Gehenna shows up used pretty frequently, I know Myopic has a copy and I think I've seen it around elsewhere in Chicago pretty recently--Bookleggers and Gallery Books, I think.
What is ILL? My copy is in at the library, so I should be all set - picking it up tonight!No copies at Open Books, FYI.
Interlibrary loan. My copy appears to be coming from Michigan.
ILL is possibly the pinnacle of modern culture, perhaps even human evolution itself.
I feel as though I've let Mori Phelps down for not knowing what that meant.
