Lexicon Urthus

This is the message as the crawl holds it, before anything here touched it. What the conversation shows has been through ingest: transfer encodings decoded, attachments dropped, quote markers repaired, and the archiver’s ? resolved into quotation marks and dashes. Those repairs are judgements and some of them are wrong, which is what this page is for. Email addresses are obscured here as they are everywhere else on the site, so it is before our repairs rather than byte for byte.

The time has finally come for me to join the community of civilised
readers and buy a copy of Lexicon Urthus - or at least persuade my
girlfriend to buy me one for my birthday. Amazon has it listed as 'three
week back order', which is Amazon speak for 'damned if we know how to
get a copy, but we'll gladly take your credit card number'.

Is there any other (mail order from Australia) source for the book? I
believe the author is on this mailing list. Perhaps he has a stack of
unsold copies in his basement?
