(urth) Bibliomen

[Marc Aramini]

I am pretty sure I have everything save some of his essays.  Certainly everything listed as fiction.  Bibliomen isn't earth shattering but it's good fun.  The version published later is cheaper and had a few additional entries so get that one if you feel compelled.
