For a while I couldn't turn around without tripping over drifts of
lonely orphan _Soldier_ paperbacks that nobody would take home.  But
you're right, Wolfe is mostly not one of the authors who turns up a
lot used.  A fair bit of _New Sun_.  Last summer, SoHo Books (of that
ilk) had quite a stash: _Castle_, _Storeys_, _Peace, _Devil_, _Doctor
Death_, I forget what else, all like new.  Probably Tor surplus. :-(
Wolfe is definitely one of the authors whose books I don't wait to
find used, both because that's not so easy and because I'd prefer to
buy a copy.
