You're SUCh a tease Mark! As only you and I have been privy to this before I guess this is where the snowball of enthusiasm starts rolling.

They changed the cover again? Hopefully the version with all our names on it will be the actual version. I like the back cover....nice.

Originally, clownloachfan it was supposed to be coming out on Nov. 30th but there were rumours of that being delayed due to last minuite changes that we managed to convince them to make. Nomenclature stuff, etc....so the book is about as up to date as is possible.

It's been at the actual printers a while now.

Interesting martin. They must truely be a great company if they are listening to people outside of the their writers. Science is always changing, isnt it?

Yes, Mark in Van...well outside actually.

They're only showing a very small part of the book there....a real teaser.
Kind of the entree to the meat and veg.

The only w(h)ine is the stuff that space precluded us putting in.

Almost finally over! I was pleased to see they've stuck it in a dust jacket - real fancy like. For a large format, full colour hardcover, $34.95 is not a bad price at all.

Hoh! We hev a dust jacquet.....should we come over all Paris Hilton like then? :wink:

I was asked yesterday if I'm interested in doing a book-signing when Harold gets his stock of the book in at The Menagerie. This is all kind of out of my previous experience, but I said yes.
