<font color="gold">There's several editions? What's the differences? Does the Deluxe one simply look fancier? [img]tongue.gif[/img]
Anyway, OotP doesn't come to Norway before Christmas, I think, so it'll be a while until I read it. Unless I get my ass in gear and actually order an English copy somewhere. [img]tongue.gif[/img] </font> |

It's scheduled to arrive Saturday! Can't wait! I just got the normal hardback version.

<font color=skyblue>I have actually decided to wait and test my luck on finding it on the shelves. I know I will be called a fool...but I jsut did not want to preorder. I have the previous four in hard-back, and will also get this one in hardback...but I know nothing of what is called "deluxe".
Sadly enough, I will also be out of town on Saturday, with no book store anywhere around. (Mountain camping)...and when I return, I doubt I'll have the money until the 30th of the month to buy it. Poor me. I can't wait to read it though. </font>

I ordered the Deluxe Ed. (Yeah, it was costly) but I really like the extra art (being an Artist and all I guess)

I preordered it on Amazon.com. If you preorder it there you will recieve it the day it comes out even if you select 3-7 day shipping. For those of you who don't know what Deluxe version is it just has a fancy cloth book front and some trinkets that come with it. Just another way for those publishers to rip you off

I'm really looking forward to reading this new Harry Potter book, and it's only a couple of days until the release so I'm kind of excited, but nothing special. My mind is occupied with the coming rowing matches [img]smile.gif[/img]
Anyways, I didn't preordered it, never have, never will, because frankly I don't care that much about something material such as a book to have it as soon as possible. Everything can wait, there's no rush. [img]smile.gif[/img] I bet my little brother *is* actually glad because it is his birthday soon.. I bet he's getting the new HP as he has the first four books as well ![]()

Yep, it's definitely a big book! IIRC it's a third longer than The Goblet of Fire
