Absolutely shocking to see fans being charged £120 for one of these signed books. So, without further ado, you can now buy your own copy, courtesy of re-publication and for the more modest sum of £7.99. Available as paperback and E-book. https://t.co/Q0AtUCBqr9

Really excited to announce that finally the pre-orders are starting to go live. Currently the paperback is available on Waterstones and the Hardback is available via Walmart. We're expecting both sites to offer both books shortly. I'm afraid X wont allow me to share the links.
