Mine is on order via Amazon UK, back order. I think last I looked it was March 2011:mad:
I think the copy on amazon.co.uk shipping in March 2011 is the trade hardback from Tor (I've got it on pre-order too). The copy FPW is referring to is from Gauntlet Press.

Ordered 'em, pal Kenji! As soon as they arrive, your copy will be winging its way across the awesome Pacific!
(I use that phrase because I'm reading HALSEY'S TYPHOON. In December 1944, the fury of that ocean sank 3 (then) modern American destroyers. There's a great fictional treatment of that storm in Herman Wouk's THE CAINE MUTINY. I can't recommend that book too highly.)
Got my slipcased numbered edition yesterday!
Got mine last week on the 26th (my birthday!!!)

Got it, read it, sending a copy across the mighty Pacific to Kenji.
"So, children, what did we learn here?"
(A chorus of little voices)
"If you mess with Jack's friend, you mess with Jack!"
"Is that a good idea, children?"
"No! That is a very bad idea!"
"That's right, children!"

Yeah, I received the book, Mike. Thank you!
I was reading Deaver's EDGE, but I have to put it down and I'll start reading Secret Vengeance.

You're very welcome, pal Kenji.
