The shiny cover art in high-def. reveals boys wearing trousers and rolled up sleeves, a most intriguing choice.

I'm in love with your Hephaistion, does this mean the book's coming to the States anytime?

It also has the Parthenon sitting on a Macedonian plain, but I'm getting used to it.

No idea about other off-shore releases. It would be nice, but we'll have to see how it works out. You can probably score a copy online, though.

I once saw a Parmenion in medieval armor on a book cover...

I shall wait patiently...for the other two in the trilogy as well :p

BTW, congratulations!

Cool!

Just quietly? Yeah, I kinda think it is. ;)

11 days, 19 hours, 16 minutes and 53 seconds plus 5-7 days for shipping?!

*dies*

and it *is* shiny pretty...

Erm ... I'm afraid your carefully calibrated counting down wotsit is going to be thwarted by publishing house types changing the release date by a month-ish*. No idea why.

Sorry about that.

*plus shipping.

Re: A trilogy. Wow. Everyone has those I guess...

That horrid Italian dude...

*shudders*

Woooooo-hoooo! Terrific! Congratulations! Will the book be available in Yurrup?

[3scoremiles_10]

Only if we can figure out how many yurrohs to charge for it. ;)

But seriously, I'm unaware of any non-Antipodean releases at this stage. I imagine I would have to be phenomenally lucky to score a European release, but we can keep our fingers crossed.
