There should be a page with garden links to all the games in the book!

THAT is a good looking book! And surprisingly priced too.

Went for a purchase as soon as I saw the link, the PDF is an excellent compliment while waiting for the real thing to arrive. The first edition has been incredibly hard to get ... unless money is of no concern ;P

Ordered! Thank you for the heads up. By the way, Amazon has the original listed for $100 US. (https://www.amazon.com/dp/1783524863/ref=cm_sw_em_r_mt_dp_GETNKSS6ERHYZ1B8MEP3)

@MacintoshLibrarian had a great video about MECC, I learned a lot from it and recommend it.

Insta-buy after a mere viewing of 3 screenshots.

Liked the original a lot, wish I could trade in for the expanded version though! Some of the formatting choices were a little odd, and sounds like there were some tweaks in that regard...

This book looks amazing. Ordered my copy!

 

[Mu0n]

It's shipped from the Great Britain today! I expect it already on Thursday! Nice speed to Canada.

 

[aradiogurl]

My copy arrived today, larger than I expected, extremely well packaged. I already started reading the pdf copy, but the hardback is beautiful

My copy just arrived today! I've got the first edition, but I'm really looking forward to this one.

 

[Byte Knight]

Ordered despite a painful exchange rate!

 

[Mu0n]

What is the shipping cost to Canada like?

16.95 GBP so around 28.50 $CAD

Still haven't got it, the shipment was sent later than predicted and on par to get here mid next-week.

Thanks for posting this! My son just went ahead and ordered the book for me as a Christmas gift as we were talking (what a guy). Spoiled any 'surprise' but it's going to be a happy holiday of nostalgia and reading! Can't wait to get it. Also shipping overseas to the states, but worth it IMO.

My book got all the way to the US in less than a week and it's noticeably thicker than the first edition!

 

[JDW]

I have the 1st edition. No doubt many of you do too. What are you all doing with your 1st editions?
(I doubt they'd sell now that the expanded version is out, and I honestly don't need two books largely the same!)

 

[slomacuser]

I have pledged for digital copy of first edition so now I can buy the real book of expanded edition... @JDW same happen to me for Iconic book that I am trying to sell or trade now but with zero interests

 

[Patrick]

What are you all doing with your 1st editions?

... so .. i guess thats an idea.

Interestingly, I've never lost a book. But at my age, the thing I increasingly lose these days is my mind.
