With Deluxe editions like this, most people would only very occasionally look at them and not use them as reading copies. This edition is really to show off the art-work.

I'm very careful with these books and hope they are fine with the very occasional use that they get.

I have been able to add to cart, place an order and pay for it already now, some 33 minutes (?) before the official release time. Can anyone else confirm that this is possible? Has there been a catastrophic error at HarperCollins or have I just got the timing wrong? It was supposed to be 13:00 GMT right?

Are you able to add to cart from the landing page that had the countdown timer?

I can add to basket but says cannot ship to selected address. I live in Scotland :(

Here is a screenshot of the confirmation email I got.

Hello EmilK,

I have the same thing. Have ordered the books and already paid and got confirmation. I guess they released it a little bit earlier than the countdown.

...HarperCollins UK cannot ship to Scotland? That sounds like something weird is going on?

Was also able to complete my order early.

Huzzah ! Got it to work :)

You can buy direct from HC as well now.

I think you need to be registered as a member with Harper Collins. If so,then log in and order.
