Luna Cognita Bookset - Where to buy?

[johninderby]

Have been considering ordering the Luna Cognita bookset and wondered of there were any good deals around. There is a seller on eBay with a good price but as they are away not accepting orders.

Hi John,  I ordered mine from the Book Deposatory. It was dispatched this morning, so should be here soon. 

[johninderby]

Thanks.

Have been doing a bit of seaching and UKpaperbackshop (on Amazon) has it at £52.08 delivered so looking favouritr so far. 👍🏻

I got it direct from the publishers Springer. Cost £65 so you are getting a good deal. Is it available in paper back? The publishers said it was printed to order and only hardback.

Despite being shipped by the UKpaperbackshop it is hardcover. 🤔

John, mine is one it's way from UKPaperback show, from a link on Amazon.  if you look it up on Amazon it will show you other places affiliated to them you can get it from, just click 'all options'- or something like that.  I've already had one send from Amazon themselves and had to send it back - they only included one of the three volumes!

Mine is costing £49 including postage by the way.

It's well worth the effort, a close friend of mine who has being collecting  astronomy and spaceflight books for over fifty years recently bought a set..  When he had his copy delivered he phoned me immediately and I'd never heard him so excited, he said it was by far the best new book(s) and the best values in all of the fifty years he has been buying books, He is a lunar specialist, and believe me, he really know what he is talking about. 

Make sure you get a copy, or you will regret it when you get to see a set.  I'm just keeping my fingers crossed mine arrives (in about a week), there aren't many copies around.

Ordered from Abebooks. £48.62. 🙂

Due 22nd April.

Mine arrived just now, haven’t opened the box yet but looking forward to it! 👍👍

[johninderby]

At this rate will there be anyone on SGL that doesn’t get a copy? 😁😁😁

Can you all stop talking about this book - it looks really good but I'm banned from getting any new astro books!

Well John, there shouldn't be any true lunar enthusiast who doesn't buy a copy when they find out about it  - in my humble opinion 🙂.

[johninderby]

Perhaps it should be a requirement of being an SGL menber to own a copy. 😁😁😁

Would suit the “Lunatics” on here. 🤪

Just ordered a copy as my 50th birthday present! 😊🌙
