I haven't read a book of the series but I'm sick of all the banter about it. There are so many authors out there more in "need of a read".

This story was a conceptual gem. Late seventies to early eighties. You know concept stories -- years later they're still grabbing you, but you've forgotten the author. The story was about some ants from another planet (there is space-travel now) who can be bought and had as pets. You put them in your living room in a giant ant-farm terrarium and the ants, who are large, begin making glubular bricks and building an enormous statue of you, very life-like, which they commence to bow down to and bring ceremonial gifts to every day.
The protagonist mistreats his ants, and slowly, over time, his statue gets less and less flattering, and finally turns ugly or something.

Here's what I have:
They're all called "Short Stories." They have full color covers with animated pictures. They're each about 140 pages in length.
Here are the issues that I have:
Jan 10, 1937 (Doubleday, Doran and Co)
May 10, 1948 (Short Stories, Inc)
November 10, 1945 (Short Stories, Inc)
February 10, 1946 (Short Stories, Inc)

I really have no idea if they're worth anything at all, but I don't want to put them into storage with all of the rest of my crap and find out they're worth millions or something. Any help is appreciated!

I keep hearing rumors that the author of Harry Potter is a practicing Satanist? Does anyone know anything about this or if it is true or false?

Do they want you to email a query letter, then wait for a response, then send a manuscript copy, or send a hard copy of one's complete manuscript and query letter all together via snail-mail...

I want to buy the set of three wands (for me and my friends), these ones:
http://www.wbshop.com/cat/Set-of-Three-Harry-Potter-Collectible-Wands-by-Noble.html
And I was just wondering if anyone has or has ever seen any of these wands in person? If so, what kind of quality are they? All we have to go by is the one very small picture...
And also, has anyone had experience buying from this store, especially from Australia? What can we expect the shipping time to be? It says "International
Transit time is 2 to 14 business days after the package leaves our warehouse (usually 1 week).", how likely could we expect that we would be able to receive them by the 20th of July if we ordered them now (which is 10 business days)?

Just finished his sixth Women's Murder Club book and was checking out his website. ABC is making a series in the fall with the four original members of the club. I think it is going to be so cool, and I don't usually watch television but I sure will in the fall.

Can anyone tell me what version of 'Meditations' is the best translated volume. Penguin Classics, Modern Library and Loeb Classics are just a few versions of this book out there. Which one is the best? Is there another one that is better that I have not listed?

I'm reading the 7th one the day it comes out, but the last time I read the 5th and 6th ones were like a year and a half ago, I have the other ones memorized pretty much.

Where can I find detailed summaries of the 5th and 6th book so as to be in the loop when I read the last one. Wikipedia offers vague, short ones, I need something along the lines of chapter by chapter summaries. Thanks alot.
