Do you have a Forbidden Planet or a Waterstones near you? Reason I'm asking
is that both stores will get import books for you at no extra cost. If you
live within travelling distance of Manchester go to Deansgate Waterstones as
they've got *the* most amazing sci-fi department  which is where I got my
copies of all the Diana Tregarde and Serrated Edge novels (and there's a
Starbucks next door <g>). If you live nearer Leeds, try Borders in the town
centre. When I was last there it was the *only* place I'd seen Owl Knight as
an imported hardback, it's obviously a few years ago now so it may have gone
downhill since then.

I got my copy of Brightly Burning (the big type paperback) from Liverpool
Waterstones which doesn't even have a particularly good fantasy section, but
I had to get Beyond Worlds End from Amazon (though I've since seen it in
Liverpool's Forbidden Planet) but it is only out in hardback AFAIK.

Can't help you with the rest of the country I'm afraid! If none of these
options are feasible your best bet is Amazon (.co.uk or .com) or even WH
Smith online.

HTH,

Ally

Brightly Burning is for sure, I just bought it yesterday. . .I'm in Canada, it's also in paperback in the U.S.. . .
          sorry for the one liner

I've been hunting When the Bough Breaks too. Forbidden Planet in London, who are usually
very good, say it's out of print and the publishers apparently have no copies left in the
back catalogue to order. Only just got into the "urban elves" this year...read Wheels of Fire
and The Chrome Borne, and reading Bedlam's Bard at the moment.

Jinx High I've had for years(was the first Di Tregarde book I found)so no clue on that one,
but wouldn't surprise me if the whole DT series are OOP these days judging by "The Last Straw"
etc and Misty not writing any more of them (anyone who's not familiar with "The Last Straw",
sorry, forgot the URL - ask a Councilor of Mist).

Re Eric/Beth/Kory - I'm just partway through Bedlam's Bard, which I understand was previously
released as two books, like The Chrome Borne. Has Misty written anything else with E/B/K yet?
No doubt someone knows the answer...?

I think that calls for another snippet...

This time I managed to make sure that all the italics were in the right
place! Thanks to Terri Lee at firebird for hosting it. Don't forget you can
pre-order the book from her. (only fair to plug, since it's her webspace!)

Have fun!

Paul
