Perfect Condition
I had read one of the Raj Quartet books and wanted to read them all. So I looked on Alibris for the others and found that the series was available in a set version. I ordered it and was very pleased that the set of books arrived in perfect condition. Unbelievablely great and still inexpensive! What a great way to build a great library. Thanks Alibris.
