The UK too! I know you can probably get them somewhere but not up in Oxford at the moment and yes they will re-release but I am SO impatinet and any argument I could muster has to do. Fine I will admit it - the Halfblood chronicles world made a very lasting impression on me - comparable only with Tolkien's Middle Earth and Tad Williams' Osten Ard. Compared o others it is just so real - there is not just good and evil but a myriad of shades of gray. It is lush. Though to sound a critical note - the ending of the last book seemed rather rash to me - ie the description of the rebellion - it might be because I did not want the book to finish but it ust seemed as if contents of about three other books were put into a couple of pages. But that is 'Chronicles' style I suppose...I just can't get enough of Hafbloods and elves and dragons and humans - we need a HUMAN hero now - we had pure elves and half-bloods and dragons - what about humans? Mairi - proud of her heritage
