I have changed my Kobo profile over to a US address, and the books are suddenly available. The Sept50 code works, cutting the $15.99 price to $7.99. (Which is €5.92.) I've bought both books. Pity that the Heiké Story is not in English. Could you check if this is available at Amazon?

Thinking back that I paid almost €30 for each hardback almost a decade ago, that is a huge price difference.

These two books are going to be near the top of my To Be (Re-)Read List ASAP. I've been wanting to re-read them, but didn't want to lug the 1000-page hardcovers around, not to mention having to squint at the the very small print.

Thanks for finding these. I think I'll leave my Kobo account on the US address; cheaper, and more books to be had. Karma for you. Twice, if I could.

Sorry for the off-topic Grace, but it may have been worth it. If you (ever) intend to read either Musashi or Taiko, which I'd highly recommend, then this is a good time to get because of the Kobo Sept50 code.
