It has different prices in different countries, and in some, it's not available. I acquired this omnibus at Kobo, using a large coupon. In the end, I paid around $2.75 per book.

For your interest, the paper pagecount is close to 12,000 pages. Using 2400 characters per page (which is how I count all books), the pagecount is 8,656 pages.

I did split up the omnibus into 10 books. If I'd read them one after the other at my current pace, it would take me around 6 months to read them all. If I do that this year, I'll fail my own subchallenges, so I'll probably start this series somewhere at the beginning of next year.

Good to hear that you're enjoying it
