Requiem: Collected Works and Tributes to the Grand Master

[DrMclony]

Any body else looking forward to grabbing this when TOR books release it on june 21? I had a suspicion it was a reprint but the amazon listing says first release

It's sure got me curious

I can't post the link of course, but its listed as coming soon on amazon.

I don't know why it would say new release if it's the Requiem I'm thinking of. As far as getting it, I've never been all that interested in a bang for the buck sense. Very slim fictional pickings. The non-fiction would be nice to read but it just never seemed essential to me.

It was first published in 1992 - my own copy is the 1994 paperback. I can't find any Amazon listing for a rerelease in June, though...

All very strange. Here is the Wiki stub article for the book published in 1992

And here is Amazon.co.uk selling that edition second hand:

Requiem: Collected Works & Tributes to the Grand Master: Amazon.co.uk: Robert A. Heinlein, Yoji Kondo: Books

And here is Amazon.com selling an apparently completely new edition:

Amazon.com: Requiem: Collected Works and Tributes to the Grand Master (9780765320544): Robert A. Heinlein: Books

with:

Heinlein shelves...

Tor has it listed in it's 'coming soon' section, btw~

*finger hovers over the pre-order button*
