I noticed that, too. And I agree. Did they use a different printer this time?
Yep, that's why it took so long.

I am really enjoying this print version. I also love the way it lies flat better than other hardcovers.

Got mine in the mail as well. Really nice looking book, except.....

...white endpapers/endsheets? As gorgeous as the rest of the book turned out, and as used I am to color endpapers, the white was actually jarring. Surely with the available maps and artwork something could have been used rather than white--maybe even a brown-toned marbling?

But, First World Problem, really. The rest of the book looks outstanding and I can't wait to dig into it. :)

Mine arrived today in North Carolina! I'd say "squeee!" but I don't think my woodman character would approve.

Hi,

I was looking at the store and it seems the print version is already out of stock!

Does that mean that I won't see the book at my local brick and mortar store? If not, will they be a reprint?

I am really looking forward to running this campaign but I found it a lot easier to run it with a physical book.

As the European material is still coming from the US and the US pre-orders are only now arriving my guess is that it has not yet arrived 'in-stock' in order to go out of stock.

What Hermes Serpent says is true - we just haven't updated our webstore to say it's in stock yet. It'll be in US stores next Wednesday, and in UK stores not too long after that.

I would like to think that UK pre-orders are with people before it is available in any US store. You are a UK company after all.

I'm quite worried about my order, since it's taken right up to my holiday, the original pre-order said April 2014 (I checked the email) and we all know things change, but it just happens to arrive when I might not be able to receive it. Very worried.
