???Just for curiosity are there any people out there that have these books? I tried to find them on Amazon and the cheapest I have seen was $250.00 while the most expensive one was $750.00. I know they were never published in the U.S.A. but that is still better than the German version where only books one to twelve were published. I don't know if project AON is planning to publish them online but I sure hope so. If not do you people who own them think it is legal to ask if you can photocopy and scan them so that people - like me - can buy them off you??? I know it is a hassel to do such a work but still it is pretty bad for a diehard Lone Wolf fan not to know how the story goes on.

Check out some of the other threads for more information about this. I know there is some in the New Order Series Poll thread, and I've also posted a thread that says "If you're looking for Lone Wolf books. . ." Just to reiterate, try EBay.com or AbeBooks.com. You will have to pay a lot for some of them: it's not uncommon for them to sell for over $100 U.S. each. Unfortunately, if you are committed, this may be the only way. AbeBooks is nice because you don't have to worry about getting into a bidwar over something, but at the same time, things sometimes are more money to buy outright. Good luck, and I'll be praying for an online release as well.

Ebay is the wisest choice. Sometimes the books go for a lot, sometimes a little. I just sold my set and they varied from $40 to $170 I think. If I had to re-collect them, I'd find them on ebay, then head to www.auctionsniper.com and put in what I was willing to pay for them. Then just sit back and see if you win. KL

Yeah, this price-gouger just over-charged me by about $80.00 for shipping! . . . Just kidding , you were excellent to work with. Seriously, one of the things to watch out for IS how much people will charge you for shipping. A lot of the books come from over-seas, at least in the United States, so sometimes you can end up paying as much or more for shipping the book than the book itself costs. I try to win multiple books from one seller, and if I can stand the wait, request them shipped via surface mail. It comes out a lot cheaper, especially with large orders.

21-29?
Are those the ones where you play one of Lone Wolf's pupils?
I was going to ask about them... are they never to be included in this project, then?
BTW, how long does the registration confirmation email usually take? It's been about 30 mins or more, and mine hasn't come through yet - but presumably if I try and reregister, I'll be told I already have an account?

I thought the New Order series stopped at Book 28.

They do; 21-29 must have been a typo.
