Good Poem; Bad Price

I wanted the Warner & Warner translation as it is the most accurate and most complete version of the Shanama. This is only the first volume of a nine volume series. I like how it reads and the typeface is clear. That $30 pricetag is a bit steep and most definitely the other few available volumes at around $40 and up is ridiculous. As far as the poetry goes, I like it and it is nice to read this as opposed to the typical European stuff.
