So, my dad has been interviewing authors for about 20 years now I'd say, and over the years he's interviewed some pretty awesome people. Michael Crichton, Bob Denver, Billy Corgan, George Bush Senior, William Shatner, Chuck Norris, just to name a few.

Well, unfortunately my dad has fallen on some hard times, and things just don't seem to be looking up anytime soon. So despite him not wanting to let go of them, he's decided the only thing he can do right now is sell some of his very rare and very sought after signed first editions.

So, this is where I come to you guys and see if anyone here is interested in helping out by buying a book or two, or hell, even donating a few dollars. Without going into too much detail, all I can really say he was let go from his job (along with about 75% of the staff) and still hasn't been able to make December rent, and just had his phone cut off. He's worked in radio all of his life, and really doesn't know anything else. That's what he does, and what he's always done. But finding a job in his field is incredibly hard right now, especially with the holidays and everything.

So, here is a list of some of the books he's letting go of, and if anyone is interested, just e-mail him at eyeonbooks@gmail.com and be sure to put "RE: [insert book name here]" in the subject line. Donations are also very helpful and appreciated. The PayPal address is the same as above.

Without further ado, here's the list:

*All books are signed First Editions and in fine condition unless specified otherwise.*

He also has a signed first edition of Jurassic Park by Michael Crichton, but he's not willing to part with it for any less than $2,000.
