I'm intrigued by this set, but the price is a bit too steep for me. $166 US including per order, shipping, and a 10% discount for an order over £50.00.
I can't justify spending that much on a set of books, I'm afraid.

Mine came yesterday. They do look good.
Don't know when I will ever get the time to read them.
Length-wise, just as on TV 2xB7 episodes are the equivalent of a 4 part Dr Who story, each book is the length of a target novelisation or maybe slightly longer

I would be very surprised if these don't become available as DL only or audiobooks in 2 or 3 years' time after the physical copies have sold out. |

I’d love to read these but due to brain damage from my progressive neurological disease I can’t manage print long books any more. I read eagerly, on my kindle, but only thanks to an absolutely gargantuan font. I’d buy ebooks of these in a flash. But Peter Anghelides has told me that there are no plans for ebooks. Just sad really. I just want to read the stories.

I find I don’t really get around to reading digital books often as a lot of my reading is on the Jewish Sabbath and holidays, when I don’t use electronics. |

That’s what I said when mine arrived yesterday. The wife was wholly unimpressed. Wife: Some Star Trek rubbish? Me: No… Star Trek? I mean,… Look at the spaceship! Wife: That’s not the Star Trek spaceship? Me: It’s the Liberator. Wife: Me: From Blake’s 7… so beautiful. Wife: You say crap that you buy is beautiful far, far more than you say it about me. Me (distracted by the B7 box): Hmm? Wife: Proving my point there again. Me: It’s the Liberator!! Such a lovely package. Wife: You have a lovely package. Me: Hmm? |

I think now we are starting to get set we start a separate thread for comparing the original Novelizations to these ones

So there is a 4 volume Blakes 7 "Production Diary" series of books being written. Not 100% sure if they are official release or not.
Cool.

These are back down to £100 for the next couple of days. I'm pretty sure I'm NOT going to buy them, but that tickle is just there.

There’s a horror movie called Alien? That’s really offensive. No wonder everyone keeps invading you.

That Twitter account has access to a frankly amazing set of photos and contacts relating to Blakes 7. I can’t wait for it, tbh. |
