Playing Hobb with the book chains

One undocumented feature of the Intarwebs is that the memory of a financially unsuccessful book can linger like Abu Hasan's fart. Fortunately there is a way of dealing with that. The book chains enforce the banishment for insufficient commerciality but are either too forgiving or not resourceful enough to follow the malefactors through identity changes. Thus, Sarah Monette has stepped into one of the last remaining phone booths and emerged as Katherine Addison.
