Amazon informs me delivery date has changed from 28th October to 31st December.EDIT: From private correspondence it seems it's just in the UK. I would suggest to UK potential buyers to purchase direct from the States. |

Looking forward to the October release of the Apollo 1 and Apollo 7 books! Is there any idea how far apart the future releases (through Apollo 17) will be? Thank you. |

Not to answer for him, but I just saw that J.L. posted an update to Facebook this evening. It doesn't address the pace of the future of the books, but... Since I am busy working on books for the most part these days, a quick update. Our 12 book Apollo series (Myself, John Bisney and Ed Hengeveld) is on track for first release in October. The Apollo 1 book is with the printer, and Apollo 7 is right behind. The three of us are thrilled with the way the books are turning out. In the meantime, we are well into work on future volumes. |
