Another Bundle of Books on the Way - More Offers Too!

Just to let you know that I'm still ordering books, restocking and finding new titles. Here's a collection that I've ordered recently, all of the second-hand. As usual I've marked probable prices in blue. In some cases I'm able to offer reduced prices, marked in red if the book is ordered and paid for within a calendar month of my order. If you want to place such an order, do contact me at penangbookshelf@gmail.com or on +60-12-972-6485.
