after being out of print for many years, a new edition of the book will be availalble from April 2025!
Cheers!

Support your local bookstore, don't buy it at Amazon!
Thank you very much!

Thanks Passover.
Suggested retail of US$85 looks a lot more appealing than the asking prices of older copies on eBay have always been.
Last "sold" one was just under US$550.

Edit:
Looks like RRP will be AU$155 here in Australia.

As suggested above, best to talk to your local bookstore 👍

Great news, I always wanted to put it onto my watch books shelf but not a speculative asking. Thanks for sharing 👍

Looks like RRP will be AU$155 here in Australia.

Getting different release dates on every site: 12th May, July, August.
Aus rrp now seems to be $170.
QBD has a Mothers Day preorder price of AU$144.50

More of a discount major shopping centre bookstore. I still haven't talked to my local bookshop yet. 😒🙄
Still seems to be higher than US rrp of $85.

When I ordered and paid for my copy in February the bookshop commented that it was an unusual ISBN and might not be coming through the normal distribution channel(s?). However there are still UK retail websites stating the same price of £68 and a publication date of 12th May. So fingers crossed for a phone call one week from today. 🤔

Thanks for that @MRC
🤞 for next week.
It's not the 'right' thing to do, but if I can snag one from the UK, with low/free shipping AND get the VAT deducted then I'd have to take that option.
As said in another thread; we are living in "interesting times".

I'm tempted. Anyone have an example of how the book looks inside?

Not good news.
Are they still holding your Feb deposit?

Yes, although the thermally printed receipt is rather faded now. I hope the shop will still honour it.

Yes I got an email a week or so ago saying November. Hopefully it’s the last delay

Collected my copy today.

It is not easy to photograph at 360+ pages and a stiff binding but I'll try tomorrow.

It's available on the same site with a 44% discount (from 68 gbp to 38) as MWO3 was 6 years ago;

Book is available in (at least) Germany since two weeks

People who (like me) do not support Amazon can order it at independent booksellers, for example here:

I checked and it looks like it's not a spring release in the states. I did manage to find a listing with some photos. From what I can see, I think I may want to pick it up.
