Hi everyone! I'm from South Africa and I absolutely love JV Jones' work. It's the best form of escapism that one can get!
I started off with the Book of Words trilogy and then went on to the Sword books but I still can't find the Barbed Coil andywhere and our book stores never seem to have it. But I will persist and I am sure I will eventually find it - somewhere!

welcome to the forum Moon!

for books that came out years ago and are no longer sold on the shelves of bookstores, you might want to try looking at the website of a large retailer (I use barnes and noble), and search for the book by title. If they have a used books section (online sales), then you'll see that as an option in the search results. If the site functions like B&N, then you will be able to do the purchase through the website and have it shipped to you.

I usually look through the results and find a book that is in good condition and is from a seller not to far from my home address, that way the post charge isn't too much.

good luck with that, the Barbed Coil is a MUST READ for any JV fan

cheers,
Dave

Welcome to the board!

Good to see another fan. As for some older material, my reccomendation would be amazon.com

I feel kind of bad because now i pretty much order everything book wise from them, but 9 times out of 10 they have "it" when the local bookstore doesnt.

Hello Moon,

I am also from South Africa although I left 10 years ago.
I bought my copy of The Barbed Coil from Estoril Book Shops if that helps some.
Welcome to the forums and many happy reading hours to you.

Hello again Moon,

In case you have had no luck or no time as these things go. Jump Shopping lists a few stockists in SA.
