Ah, Talislanta 4th. With resplendant binding that can withstand heavy impact with even the thickest of player skulls.

Ditto. I'm optimistically imagining them all winging their way to us across the Atlantic as we speak...

Thank heavens for PDFs!

Cheers,

According to Amazon, mine should arrive on th 14th; since its presumably Parcel Post, they're probably being conservative this time of year, as the USPS usually does better in the summer, but there it is.

Free copy, and free shipping from the U.S. to Germany. I love Chaosium.

My copy shipped from the UK yesterday. Last time I shopped with Amazon UK it took less than a week to cross Europe, so I think I'll have the physical book next week.

I received my copy yesterday (10 July). I ordered direct from Chaosium on Friday 27 June so all in all only took 13 days (9 business days) to arrive. That was with free shipping too, which I thought would add a month.

Ofcourse, ahem, I had to spend $125 in other books to get free shipping, and my wife kindly understood.

So got escape from innsmouth, end time, Liber ka, cthulhu rising pdf, yellow sign dice bag, ravenor saga and fate of fools. Not a bad lot for £65 odd quid from halfway accross the world.

So now I have the ARC 115, 1st ed and the PDF. Just waiting for the hardback now.

Also I have to say, that as much as I liked the cover design when it was annouined, I now prefer the simpler ARC one with the dragon.

Ho hum
