The covers are rather fab, aren't they! The only grump I might have about them is that there's a kind of oily finish to the covers, which is a bit disconcerting - oh, and they're a large format paperback, even bigger than my original hardcover Point of Hopes book, and won't fit into my bookshelf where I want them...
Book Depository has PoK down for 72 hour despatch (I think you can ignore the "advance copy" on the image they provide, mine is a perfectly ordinary copy - unless the few typos I picked up are down to it being an "advance copy", and they've been corrected elsewhere (I suspect not, though...). Hmmn - it's also now available from Amazon.co.uk, which it wasn't when I ordered it. It doesn't say how long despatch will take, though it reckons if you order Express Delivery it'll get to you tomorrow, so I assume that means it's in. Ha - and I see Amazon have BookDepository as one of their sellers, with added postage - bizarre. It's cheaper from BookDepository, and that's part of the UK economy, so I'd recommend them - plus I'

I'd forgotten about Point of Knives coming out! Thanks for the reminder. It's now sitting on my kindle and I'll try to save it for when I'm on holiday. :D
Come to think of it - did I lend you Point of Hopes when we were at Looe? I know I did someone, and I know I've got it written down somewhere, but just to save me delving... *g*
Oh, Astreiant! Do you know, I'd forgotten them for years until you gave a plug for PoK coming out, so I pulled the others out and fell in love again. Such a marvelous world (that the characters are as well goes without saying!). I want to visit it. Heck, I want to write it. ;-)
Oh, I'm so glad - everyone should be in love with Astreiant... *g* I want to live there... I actually wondered about trying to write a wee something for astreiant, but I'm not confident about getting the lovely rhythm right...
You should! If anyone would get that right, you would, I'm sure. Me, I'm not so sure about, but I've committed a tiny fic anyway, which I will PM to you if you're interested? Not sure it's ready for prime-time, but I'd love to have an opinion on it....

For the UK, where is it best to order Point of Knives from?
