This is the third time I've seen this mentioned since I posted buying it on here. It must be this new fantasy masterwork edition. I haven't started it yet, but I look forward to discussing it with everyone!

I dont think anyone buys one of the most classic fantasy series for a certain new edition but of course i will take the great looking SF/Fantasy masterworks version before some old omnibus

I always get authors i want with their masterwork versions. They usually have awesome covers and are in so good condition compared to other paperbacks/trades/softcovers.

I bought Lankhmar now because actually your post reminded me i hadnt ordered it yet

Is that the new mini series VG is putting out with white covers and an illustratin or the original Masterwork edition with a picture/painting of our heroes? The original Masterwork edition (in fact this really forms part of the masterwork series, I have the entire collecion for both SF and Fantasy) came in 2 volumes for Fahrd and the Grey Mouser.

It's the new one Gollum, with this cover:


This looked like the best of the ones there. I quite like the design!

Re: Book Hauls!

That's what I thought.

It is book 1, book 2 will be out later.

Well, considering the difference in distance, I would expect yours will take a bit longer still... but it should reach you fairly soon now....

In the meantime, I've received a copy of A. A. Attanasio's Twice Dead Things and C. J. Henderson's The Things That Are Not There....
