There're preorders available for a paperback version of the book coming around Nov 3 on Barnes and Noble

http://search.barnesandnoble.com/The-Va ... 90/?itm=39

I just don't know what this means, though. Just strange. The volume is still listed on TokyoPop's site: http://www.tokyopop.com/product/1787/Tw ... rEdition/3

Yike, and I don't see it being sold on eBay for anything less than $30! What the hell happaned?

I was also really upset to see the hardcover edition MIA. :evil: I had waited to buy it because I was saving money for other reasons, but now I can't find it. This is really dumb. I'm seeing comments on other sites from as far back as May of people complaining of it being sold out everywhere.

I decided to take a chance and order it from Borders.com, who has it on backorder (4-8 weeks wait they're saying). Who knows if it'll actually come in, but it's worth a shot.

I'm not making the same mistake twice, so I pre-ordered Skies of Dawn.
