Looking for a copy of this book but not sure what I should be paying for it!

Any ideas?

I believe it's out of stock? But you can still pick up the second book from the publishers. Like any out of stock book it's what your willing to pay for it. And the price the market demands. What kind of price you seen them go for?

Had never realised that, or at least had completely forgotten. Is the 2nd book also limited print?

I stand corrected.

Rarer than I thought.

But not as rare as Waiting For Waddle by Phil Thompson.

The first book is full of spelling mistakes, typo's and the layout is terrible.
Obviously not proof read.
Not the greatest.

Agree it's not the greatest book ever but that first chapter about the mere fish made my hair stand on end. It's awesome imo.
Are you sure?
