      Guess what I got yesterday? Yes, this book actually exists and from flipping through it quickly it looks pretty cool. BTW I am all the way out in Las Vegas, so they have made their way west.

      Received my copy of the book today! It's really an incredible book and well worth the wait. The quality of every aspect of it, maps, text, photos are way better than what I was expecting. I love Star Wars, maps, and road trips and this book is the perfect cure for those of us not able to visit these locations in person. Glad I was able to be a part of this through the Kickstarter campaign. So in a nutshell, my review of this book is, Impressive, most impressive! Heading to Amazon to leave my review now. Thanks, take care, and MTFBWY, A!

      Still nothing here. Trying to contact Adam to see if I can just pick up my book since I am here in memphis, so far no luck.

    14. Fb_profile_picture.small

      Creator David Coffindaffer Hagstrom on June 26, 2012

      Nothing here in East TN, I really wish they can just TELL us the TRUTH. If the books shipped give us the tracking number if that is the way they where shipped. Then we could follow there the package is. If the 1st 20 packages where shipped fine give us the name so those people could be looking for them.

    15. Fb_profile_picture.small

      Creator Julie A. Johnston on June 25, 2012

      Nope, no package here in Memphis, same city as the sender, has been over a week since the last advisory that packages have shipped on june 17, 2012. In our neighborhood we usually receive mail within two days from surrounding states via usps, ups, or fedex. So I'm guessing there maybe some additional issues. Have posted here: http://www.facebook.com/StarWarsRoadTrips asking Adam to start checking his tracking numbers.

      You're sick? Go get better! And fast and soon! (Because being sick sucks.) =) You really should have said so. Might have kept people from freaking out. Am I the only one that doesn't freak out about ship dates? =/ Yeesh, patience, people...and forget Amazon--that's like comparing apples to oranges when it comes to shipping abilities. I don't care when I get the book, so long as I do!

    21. Mohawk.small

      Creator Morris Umali on June 18, 2012

      I notice that on Amazon the price of the book has gone up from $30 to $35. I wonder why that is.

    22. Fb_profile_picture.small

      Creator Melissa van de Putte on June 16, 2012

      I am really disappointed that other backers did not receive their books as promised and the supposed receipt date for the extremely belated shipments was around 5/27? Its June 16th and people who had not backed it received it before we do is insulting. Nothing for those of us who had faith in it and a small part in getting in published is very disappointing. If I don't receive an apology and the shipment by the end of this month I will complain to both Kickstarter and leave negative reviews on Amazon.

    23. Missing_small

      Creator Scott Hume on June 13, 2012

      There is a new comment on the "updates" tab, in response to the May 20 update, indicating that 200 copies of the book are being shipped out today. Until I get a new official update and have the book in my hand, I will remain skeptical, but I am encouraged that it appears that the books may (finally) be shipping.

      I also sent a message to Adam on June 6th regarding the lack of books shipped to us and no response. What can we do at this point? Any ideas?

      Creator Scott Hume on June 12, 2012

      Any updates on this? Anything?!?!

    26. Fb_profile_picture.small

      Creator Jeremy Stomberg on June 12, 2012

      I just sent a message to Adam R. Parr on his Facebook page. We'll see if that helps anything.

      We paid at least $40 for this book, and people are getting it off Amazon for $29.99 before the backers receive theirs. That's just wrong.

      Hey, someone on the RPF already recieved their book that they ordered through AMAZON!

      What about the 248 backers that supported your project to make it a reality!?

    29. Missing_small

      Creator Scott Hume on June 9, 2012

      Any updates on when the books will finally be shipped? The May 20 update made it sound as if they would be shipping that week, but I have not received anything yet and judging by the comments linked to the last update no one else has received the book, either...

      Creator Siddique Hussain on May 21, 2012

      Thanks for update Adam. I know how its is when things out of your control disrupts well laid plans. Believe me I've been there. I appreciate your honesty. I look forward to getting the book in the mail even so. In fact I'm preparing myself by re-reading 'The Making of the Empire Strikes Back'.

    31. Facebook%20profile.small

      What can I do in the UK to promote the book and project? Will it be available to buy on amazon.co.uk?

      Creator Adam R. Parr on February 17, 2012

      Federico, my friend, a million thanks to you for both your support & your kind words. It is for you, and others like you, that we wrote this book. My dream of sharing it with the world is now coming true thanks to the support of people like yourself. I can't thank you enough. I honestly can't wait to send you your signed copy!

      AND, if this first edition is at all successful, it is our plan to make a trip to Tunisia, Spain & Italy in the next 18 to 24 mos. Among other places, we'll be visiting Lake Como in Italy, and documenting the various locations for the Second Edition, which we hope to do within the next two years!! If and when we come to your absolutely beautiful country, (and I'm lucky enough to have been there once before!), I'll be getting in touch with you, my friend. We'll have to eat a meal together!

      (Finally, I must say that I'd very much like to see Maranello & Ferrari the next time I'm in Italy. Sadly, I did not have a chance to make that visit the last time I was there. That would truly be another dream come true for me. I must say that I think the new 458 Italia is the most beautiful car I've ever seen...)
