I believe Child of Prophecy is already out in trade paperback in Austrlia. I also happen to know, however, that the postage (to UK, anyway)is more than the cost of the book itself http://www.sffworld.com/ubb/frown.gif

Yeah, I think that is correct Sam82, I was thinking about ordering from there, but then decided to wait for it to come out in the UK, plus I've got plenty to read while I wait.

I've said previously in another topic, that here in Australia, they are selling all 3 Juliet Marillier books as a package for $40 (AUS $). Would this make it any more economical for you guys?

[Pathir]

In the Netherlands Fool's errand has already been translated and released, strangely enough. I'm 200 pages in the book now and it's looking good. Not much action yet, if you like that kind of thing, but a nice return to a world full with old friends.

[azaz]

e-Morgana, I've already got Daughter of the Forest and Son of Shadows. If I didn't then I would have brought that package.

[Shadowen]

I put this in a different thread too, I think, but Child of Prohecy can be bought and shipped to the UK from Australian books online for 42 dollars, which converts at less than 15 pounds sterling. Thats probably cheaper than waithing for the hardback in January which will probably be 16-17 pounds.
