I got a phone call from Waterstones here in Brussels yesterday at about 6 pm to say my pre-ordered copy was in - I got there by half past six and picked it up - and I am now about half way through it.

Discworld Companion, the 3rd revised edition (the 4th in all) comes out tomorrow. One wonders how many more of these will be published!

Terry has now reached the 200 mark for published works.

Eh, did The Illustrated Wee Free Men not come out Nov 1th, 2007?

Said so on Amazon.couk last year, but just noticed now that this date is changed to October 6th, 2008 (a whole 11 months later than they originally said).

Is it another case of Amazon just making up dates so people will pre-order & they can have your money faster? I really hate when they do that.

Did the Discworld Companion, the 3rd revised edition, come out last year at all? Haven't seen it in shops or online since.

I don't think it exists! Another Amazon 'made up' book I fear...
