heres the link for the omnibus edition.. for those who still haven;t got any of the books

its hardback and for a measly 20quid.. i really want to beat something up..
i spent over 80quid in total to get the three books in paperback format and not the new one come out in hardback

its a great bargain for those of us who are dirt poor

It sounds like it's worthwhile even if you have HD & BF already.

Got mine from PS just yesterday... Got the hardcover (is there a paperback?) It is a lovely volume, feels very solid and comfortable to hold and read. The kind of book you can curl up with.

Mines here, sitting, waiting, for tomorrow.

Yes, the other half's Norwegian, and they do presents on Christmas Eve, so I'll be demanding a couple then...

And one will just *have* to be that.

Nice and solid looking / feeling. That's how a book SHOULD be made.

I got mine of amazon.com.

As far as in stores, no where unless you get really lucky in a used book store. Chapters/Coles/Indigo don't carry it.

Thanks guys for point out at this book. I just ordered it from pspublishing. I could not part with 12-15-20 quid for each book, however 22 quid for 3 books is just the right price for me.

Quid quid latine dictum sit, altum videtur... :rolleyes: Could not resist. Why do brits call their currency quid and those on the other side of the 'pond' call theirs a buck? Go figure.

On topic: It is well worth the price. I bought it from PS and it is a really nice print/ binding. You get that satisfying feeling when you hold it in your hands and read it.

I am not happy with PS Publishing.

I placed an order on 8th Februrary, before lanch.
I have got an order number. However, there is no way to track down the order on their website and I still don't have the book, although, my visa has been charged 22 quid....

I sent them email today, the first thing in the morning and there is no reply yet.

Well, this is the last time I order anything from PS Publishing.

As I said before I placed the order on 8th February, my account was charged immediately and there was/is no note on the website that they are out of stock or anything.
After 36 hours waiting for a reply for email I sent after waiting for 10 days without any warning/notification/applogy from them, I finally got the reply:

Hello PS Publishing.
I have an order number, however there are no means on your site to track my order.
Could you please send me an update about my order status?
Thank you in advance,

So sorry for the delay. We are waiting for a delivery from our printers. As soon as they arrive your book will be wrapped and parcelled off to you.
Best wishes

Thank you for the reply.
When (approximately +-a few days? weeks?) should I expect the book to be delivered to me?
Thanks,


PS Publishing:

All being well it should be the back end of next week.
Best wishes


[3 weeks after placing the order and paying money for 2 to 4 days delivery] and who knows? It might not be here by then anyway.

Well, I definitely am not going to recommend this website to anyone.

OK...
Frankly speaking I am not happy with PS Publishing service.
Such a long delay and the website doesn't send any notifications, any warning that the item is out of stock while charging the customer and receiveing their money immediately, regardless of the availability of the book.
I will be waiting...

You are welcome :p

If I do not receive the book by Monday, I will call them and ask to cancel the order and re-order the book on Amazon. I trust them a lot more.
