Deep Wizardry is in my top handful of books, too. I suppose it'll lose the pay phone scene, though I honestly can't think of all that many many other time/tech references in it. I do understand the desire to fix the oddly elongated timeline of the series, and I'll certainly read the new versions out of sheer curiosity, but my battered paperbacks will probably remain the copy of record with me :). I actually like the slightly less polished style of the early books; some turns of phrase have remained with me for more than twenty years. But nobody's coming to take away my existing copies, so I'll try to look at the new versions as some fascinating bonus material!
