A lovely addition to the series January 5, 2009 I adored the trilogy and I waited eagerly for the fourth installment. Luckily I didn't have the missing chapter problem. The story feels more action-filled the than the previous ones, but balanced it with a hefty plot that managed to tie up some loose ends. As an extra bonus it was set in the city I live in. My one small quibble is that a lot happens in the last five or so pages, and with this as the end, I'd have liked something of an epilogue to see how the characters I've come to love go on. Apart from the abrupt finish I have no complaints, and would recommend the entire series to anyone. I'd like to have a word with whoever keeps filing it under horror in Waterstones, mind.
Help is at hand for those with problem books January 2, 2009 To all those who bought the book with the missing chapter... (and thanks for the "heads up" by the way, I appreciated the warnings!)
I've been in touch with Laurie Ip Fung Chun at William Heinemann Editorial and she has advised that ALL books are fine NOW. Those of you with problem books can obtain replacements by sending back the preliminary pages, along with the jacket/front cover to The Random House Group, 20 Vauxhall Bridge Road, London , SW1V 2SA.
I hope everyone gets the correct copy they deserve... eventually.
Hope you all have a happy 2009. Looking forward to reading this book now.
Current stock okay says amazon! December 22, 2008 Got this from Amazon regards the missing chapter:
Further to your e-mail on December 18 , 2008 I am contacting you again to let you know that the book "The Last Watch" do not have any problem. It has all the chapters printed. The problem you mentioned is only for before stock but not now.
So has anyone bought it recently and can confirm this is the case?
Query re missing chapters December 13, 2008 What should the missing chapter start and end with? I spoke with Amazon and they said that there did not appear to be any missing pages but now I am confused???
Can you tell if something is missing?? December 13, 2008 Chapter 5 begins with "To be quite honest, I would have preferred a Russian...." and ends with "Not even Inquisitors."
There are no pages missing in the sequence 247 - 264.
