 From looking at only two books published by Alphascript, "Finnish 
Paganism" and "Iron";
I think we could choose a much better selection to sell, at a price well 
below that of
Alphascript.

The book on Finnish Paganism lacks the article that has the best 
overview of the subject:
[[Finnish mythology]]; while Iron lacks our articles on most methods of 
processing the
metal, such as [[Bloomery]].
