Ooooh, good to hear. I've been planning on buying the books for ages now, but I never seem to get around to it. (I blame my parents' huge library of books - why spend cash, when I can just visit them and take a book or ten?). How are the English versions, by the way? I've heard that the translation isn't all that great, at last for the first books?  

Don't worry about when to post, I've been handed a huge project at work, plus three from my university AND I have two group RP's I need to respond to by the end of this week. In other words, I'm in no rush!
