So did anyone manage to get a copy of this Carte Blanche trade paperback that was (supposedly) release Nov 24?

http://www.thebookbo...k-released.html

Mine never shipped from The Book Depository (still says "Awaiting publication") and Amazon went right from "2 to 4 weeks" to "out of stock". So I think I might have missed out on this one. Very frustrating just trying to nail down what this is exactly. I'm still confused frankly.

Saw this in Waterstones, Leeds on Sat 26 November in passing.

Didn't get it, of course; one copy of this rubbish is enough ;)

I'm sure.

I'll be getting my copy of rubbish in May!

Can't believe I said that - have yet to even read it.

So the only person who wants the book can't get it. Something's gone haywire here.

Zen - let me know if you want me to pick it up and send it on to you.

Oh, thank you, Simon. That's really nice of you to offer. I may hold off and wait for the mass market. I can miss one edition...maybe. :P
