Seen a few have turned up battered. Looks like Calm Productions sent the books out in jiffy bags, which therefore no protection on the edges or corners. Just more evidence that the company are total rubbish.

Still not got mine. Had a note to say a parcel was in the red bin and got excited. Turned out to be the missus boots order

Same with mine. Clearly been dropped on it's edge with the corners having been crushed. Almost certainly down to the poor packaging. That said, got the book and it does not change how it reads, so not too unhappy

In a hundred years time the fact that the corners are bent over will probably make them priceless.
For God's sake it's bloody fishing.
Let's get some perspective. Terry Hearn is a Damn good fisherman.
He's not Saint Paul on the road to Damascus. Or is he?

I've had books from them in the past with the corners bashed in. They'll pack it and send it to you in the cheapest way possible.

I did say not too unhappy as book will read the same. That said if I pay for any goods that arrive in poor condition I will be unhappy. The author in this case is completely irrelevant as I buy books to read, not for resale value but getting a brand new book in slightly damaged condition is a bit frustrating

you have received 2 signed copies? So much for their "even if you buy multiple copies you will only receive one signed copy" policy. Just received 8 emails ( for 1 order ) that my 2 books have been shipped, no tracking information whatsoever and they have to make it to the Netherlands, hope they invested in some cardboard packaging for the international orders. Never had issues with them in the past, but this release has been handled very poorly.

Why's everyone needing two books? Bit greedy IMO hardly like you need both is it

Could be any reason why people buy 2 copies

A gift for someone
Sell on eBay
Keep a pristine copy for the collection. Know a couple of people that buy 2 copies of a book, one to read and one to go into the collection and I don't think this is to uncommon either 😂
Are you sure?
