Well I started this thread some time ago and can now report the book is at the printer according to James. 780 Pages!

he has started a Kickstarter for various stuff and I hope some few folks will read through this and support this project in some way:

https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/nw ... sted-metal

If you choose not to click the link you can at least read this portion:

Risks and challenges:
"The Special Signed/Slipcased Hardcover Edition of RUSTED METAL is the only item at risk of not being produced. If nobody purchases it then none will be created. We already have the Trade Paperback Edition and E-Book editions in production and those will be produced and delivered regardless of the campaign results. As will be the LAKE HILLS REVISITED Compilation LP. Those are slated to be completed and on hand at the 2019 NWMF in Seattle, if all goes well, and also we plan to start shipping the rest out in mid-to-late March (except the special HC of Rusted Metal. That will take a bit longer to produce and we anticipate having it completed in May.) NW Metalworx Music has completed and fulfilled 6 albums to date with many happy customers. We could have just launched both the HC and the Lake Hills compilations through our website as usual, but we felt a campaign here would be a fun way to do a pre-order for both the book and album and also offer some very exclusive and limited items and rare collectibles."

Would love to get a copy, but the shipping cost is killing me. I hope some European dealer/distro will order qty soon. Might have to ask James if there are any plans for that.

I hit the same problem with their reissues of TKO & Whizkey Stik, i fancied both but it seems they're without Euro distribution.
I couldn't justify the cost of shipping from the U.S.
I cannot, I shall not, I will not obey.

With prices like these (I refuse/resist to pay more than 12-15 euro/dollars for a paperback) I'm thinking about getting my 1st e-book ever.

I wonder though if it's on pdf format, because I don't have a reader anymore (I used to have an old Chinese one bought for 30-35 euro, d/w tons of pdfs, did the job, but alas it was broken(actually I couldn't charge it anymore) and I couldn't find a cheap substitute. :x

German Amazone had it for sale. Got my copy there for a human postage rate. The book is huge, but with thin paper/cover, they didn't wrap it well at all. :evil: :!:

Waddayaknow, Amazon recently opened in Sweden and they still had their "free shipping" offer. So I snagged the last copy they had for sale. Thanks!

Snagged a copy off of Amazon UK for decent price. I am wondering though if this is one of those books that Amazon print and bind themselves?

Is the book the real thing or an Amazon printed and binded version?
I was looking to get it from Amazon.de, but instead of NW Metalworx Books, the publisher appears to be Indy Pub (despite having the same ISBN as the "original" book)
Thanks!

Today you can find copies in Amazon uk.
Also Underground Power will have copies in time!
I believe in the next days more and more European sellers will have copies and price will unfortunately be around 40€.

Sorry my friend, I do not know.
But you can easily ask James the author himself. Use this email address: nwmetalworxmusic@gmail.com

I am covered since Helle will have copies.
Support independent heavy metal distros like Underground Power over Amazon!
