bboyminn:

The thing most people in the USA forget is that the UK
is just a few hundred miles away in a winter wonderland
called CANADA.

You can order the UK versions from 'Chapters - Indigo'
in Canada.

Standard Version

Adult Version-

Price = CA$24.30 (exchange rate US$1.00 = CA$1.185)

There may be other large Canadian book stores who also 
have the books, and would allow you to order on-line.

Don't count on the books arriving on the release date
though. But shipping from Canada is cheaper and faster
than from the UK.

Just passing it along.
