It really is a treasure trove of original documents.

It may well be the most impressive work of scholarship ever published by a toy conglomerate as a marketing tie-in.

 

[Azzy]

Yeah, I may have to get that.

 

[MNblockhead]

I've had it on pre-order for over a month. Looking forward to June!

 

[Aellic Mornbringer]

Same, I am really looking forward to this one.

Almost 100 pages on the first draft manuscript.

It’ll be interesting to see where the draft used in the court case falls. Closer to the original manuscript or later revisions.

I have to wonder the draft from the court case is the one they'll be using in this. Not because it's necessarily the first, but because it's the earliest complete draft that they (or anyone else) has.
