I'm eagerly awaiting my copies of books 1, 2 and 3 in the series to arrive!
This is part of a series?? How did I miss that? I purposefully try to avoid serial novels! I've had this on pre-order for a month or more....I sure hope it can stand as a story on its own....

Don't know if it applies to other countries as well? But they are coming out within a week of each other.
Thanks for the info - guess I'll have to do some research for the US releases..... :)
I am eagerly awaiting my copy in the mail! I'm so excited to have people to discuss with as I read!
It's available at B&N in hardcopy, all 3 parts included...if you're a member, it's a really good deal right now! I just picked up my copy on Thursday and can't wait to really get into this one!
I read it and thought it was terrific. I've seen different comments about the length, 900+ pages, but I've read books much shorter that seemed way longer. Thought it was completely mesmerizing - great characters, from Aomame and Tengo to Komatsu, Ushikawa, the dowager, Tamaru, etc. Murakami's writing is so clear - I was in the story right out of the gate!
