I've always meant to read this, although it might be a little heavy going for the current state of my brain. I'm mainly reading or rereading really light stuff right now. I don't have an Amazon UK account so I bought it at Kobo UK for 4.99 and submitted a price match request; that's always worked for me so far.

What I'd really like to have are the two missing Jonathan/Flavia books -- Giotto's Hand and Death and Restoration. They must have fallen into a crack between publishers. Either that or whichever publisher has the rights has decided there isn't enough profit in them -- my very least favorite thing about the copyright system.
