Will the Fantasy Masterworks series be published in the US?

I've followed this series for a bit and managed to pick up the Conan books when a friend of mine visited the UK. Many of the titles in the series are otherwise out of print. Unfortunately, it doesn't seem to be availabe in the US as of now.

I'm particualrly interested in the Clark Ashton Smith book:

Does anyone know if this series will be printed in the US?

I don't think so as the SF Masterworks series is above 40 and there is no mention. You are in Russia anyway, so why don't you just order from Amazon.UK?

I've gotten good service from them in Japan ordering some of the Erikson books, some John Harrison stuff, and some of the masterworks (actually I found some of them for sale in Japan). Slightly more expensive than the US store, but hey some books are only available that way.

Ah, I could order from the UK, but it's expensive to have it sent here. I ususally pick stuff up during visits home.

I have read the Ashton Smith Book and really liked it. Lots of different stories of differing lengths you can dip in and out of. Also a range of different styles of stuff, very different from the similar and sequential stuff in the Conan books (not that the Conan books aren't good in their own way). And you can also really see the influence it had on D&D.

I read some criticism of the Fantasy Masterwork Conan books. Regarding the order the stories were presented.
