Just seen this via a Blog I follow:

Just hope it won't affect things in the future...

Interesting.
You have to wonder if some of the more 'obscure/difficult to find books' will disappear into the ether, forever.....But maybe not.

I ordered some of the more left field books recently via Amazon and they were printed on demand and are of excellent quality. So not sure if the seller just sends of a pdf for printing, or whether they have a deal with Osprey. Either way at least the obscure books could still be available this way.

Do you think its going to stop the publication of the Centurion pop up book and sticker album?

I may have to join the Bloomsbury forum and drop some gentle hints.

 But who's afraid of Virginia Wolfe ?
Surely not our FSN.
