I had the companion ordered on Amazon for ages ... it arrived on Wednesday. A quick perusal and it looks a must buy.

I ordered mine through Waterstones, will take a few weeks to get here but I had some gift vouchers that were crying out to be used for this purpose!

I picked up two at Dreamhaven books in Minneapolis at World Fantasy Con. :D

I started getting them signed by US contributors. I'll be taking them with me to JerseyDevil and World Fantasy next year as well. Possibly BookExpo as well. Eventually, I'll get all the contributors sigs.

Come KeoghCon III next year ... some lucker begger will be winning one of them in the raffle! That's one of my donations. ;)

I know Shadoe picked up one or two at WFC as well. And I believe Jenelle picked up one also, I know Patrick did.

Andy Richards, Cold Tonnage Books in UK has some. He has them advertised in his new catalog.

Can't wait to get my hands on the limited...

I was in the Fantasy Centre recently, and reminded Ted that the Companion was available now, so there should be some in there soon hopefully.

I received my limited edition copy on Friday, Nov.29th! Yeah baby!
It is a beautifully crafted book. The art is supreme and seeing my name in the table of contents alongside such greats as Stanley Wiater and Robert Price and David McDougle just about brought a tear to my eye.

Thank you, Brian, for the opportunity to give something back to you!

Ha! Just picked up my copy of Companion yesterday!
It's so good to have a new Lumley book in my hands again. Just read through the first 30 pages or so but I'm enjoying it.

I absoluetly cannot wait for the new Novelettes of Necroscope to come out.
More Necroscope.... more please!!!!!!!!!

Yipppeeee - My limited edition companion arrived from the good old US of A this morning. I only ordered it last friday and didn't expect it for another couple of weeks.

I note that you can now order on amazon.co.uk ... but I did it on the .com site and it is slightly cheaper with the p & p. A great addition to any Lumley collection. This has put the ancient1 in a very good mood ......... smile.gif smile.gif smile.gif

I have pre-ordered a couple of the HP-5 books from Amazon --- they appear to be the cheapest with 50% off. Cheap as Chips Bargain Hunters!!!

From the tight fisted ancient1....... :D

Why is it always Canker ;)

Getting back on topic, I finally got my copies of the Companion on Friday, many thanks to Brian and Silky. Looking forward to getting a large number of contributors signatures at KeoghCon3.

Can't believe my limited edition copy is lettered 'GG'... how cool is that!
