Reading "The Tomb" for the 4th time - Maggers - 10-02-2006
For me, one of the ways I determine the quality of a book is if I want to read it again. I'm now on my 4th re-read of "The Tomb," and it's still wonderful, fresh and exhilarating.
There are no other authors for whom I feel such an attachment. FPW, you are unique.

Doesn't Heinlein rate too?
Reading "The Tomb" for the 4th time - Scott Hajek - 10-02-2006
I just finished the "definitive" version of "The Tomb" a few days ago. It's only the second time through for this book. But, WOW!!! I forgot how damn good it is. It's all the nuances that I didn't remember from over 15 years ago, but it was a blast from start to finish... This is one of those books that makes you a fan for life!

The Germans don't get it!!!! Waaaah!
I ordered it 2 months ago. there it was said, that they send it in 1 month. Now they are 1 month too late. I wrote them an email. They said it takes a little bit of time but they will have a special look at my order...

[SIZE="3"]They're coming. The translation took longer than anticipated because no one realized that the original German version was abridged. Festa will be giving you the full text. Advance orders have exceeded the planned first print run so that will be expanded.[/SIZE]

I know what you mean. I'm getting ready to pick up Blackwind for the gabillionth time. It never gets old. I am mucho looking forward to the Blackwind limited Edition from Borderlands.

Reading "The Tomb" for the 4th time - cobalt - 10-02-2006
Now there's an idea for the coming cold winter season. My couch, a blanket on my feet, a cup of hot coffee, dogs snuggled at my side and the RMJ cycle to re-read! Fabulous idea Maggers......I'll start with "The Tomb".

Okay, thanks for this answer. Good to know. I had strong feelings about that, because there are NO infos on http://www.amazon.de so....I never know what's up with my order ^^^
Now, one question, Who is Festa?
greets
