I have a few of his biographies. This includes one of Genghis Khan that unfortunately I found out later was missing about a hundred pages in the middle.

I've bought a few paperbacks with that problem in my time.

I also once found a copy of Devil in the Forrest by Gene Wolfe in the free to take home section of the library. I later found out it was in the section because the first few chapters were torn out. I later found a whole copy at a used book store.

Come to think of it, it was at the book sale at the same library that I got the Genghis Khan book.
