    Has anyone found Dark Journey at a Bookstore and if so which one??? The guy I asked at the store told me three month wait. (resisting panic attack)

    Dymocks and Angus and Robertson don't even have it on their upcoming release list. But when SBS came out, It was a week or two after the US release, although both A&R and Dymocks said a 2 month wait.

    So have faith.......

    I'm expecting it late this week or early next.

    BTW, I live in Perth.

    If you want to get a book as early as possible I think your best bet would be GALAXY BOOKSELLERS in Clarence St, Sydney (just near town hall).

    I haven't checked myself.

    Collins @ Miranda told me not till APRIL. The thing is I have a $20 gift voucher for there so I'm seriously considering waiting it out and hoping they get it early.

    Where'd you get yours Kadue? Dymocks City?

    Nope, I'm in the ACT.

    But if I can get it from this one, surely the main one in George St should have it.

    Dymocks Frankston has them in stock, I got my copy today. Don't know how long they have been there, but the part where it occupies on the shelf suggests that it came in a few days ago.

    I live in Perth and with luck should have both on Friday 8th. The bookstore airfreights in from the US.

    Others that I have asked are in total confusion(to be fair most work part-time)and unless it is "on the shelf" they don't know.

    'I find this lack of Dark Journey disturbing'.
    I live in australia and I can't find Dark Journey either, anywhere! I got Star by Star was out here really early, but Dark Journey is just not here. Does anyone know where we can find release dates or who to contact?

    I live in Victoria the best way to get New Jedi order books is to order the book in. looking on the shelf on the day of release doesn't always work. I ordered Dark journey and didn't get it til a week after the release date but i did get it. The release date in Victoria at least mirror those on the force net book schedule.

    I'd say Galaxy on Clarence St. would be your best bet for any sci-fi book, not just SW :)

    I picked my copy up on Saturday and I'm about half-way through now. However, that's in Brisbane, so it's probably not going to help most people here. But have hope! Dark Journey is in the country! :)
