The Diviner hasn't even been written yet, although Amazon persists in the delusion that it exists. Definitely an error in romsfuulynn's catalog.

In reply to your question about the Melanie Rawn book, I don't know. The location is in "paperbacks to be filed", which are in plastic crates and not readily accessible (this isn't visible on LibraryThing, but something from my Readerware database.) Since the book data shows it as a hardcover published in 99, I suspect it is an artifact of my bulk loading of ISBN's through a scanner -- either a scanner error, or an ISBN error, where whatever book I do have also has that ISBN on it.

Sorry to disappoint you...
