Just a bit of info for those who read Chinese. Vol.1-7 of the Chinese
edition of the LoGH manga are available in Chinese Online:
http://www.chineseonline.com/
They sell for $5.40 each, which is very reasonable. They also carry
Chinese editions of the 20 vols. of the Tanaka LoGH novels, plus 4 vols.
of the side story novels. Donno why it's 20 vols. while the original
is 10. The novels aren't listed on their webpage but they're listed in
their printed catalog. Each vol. sells for 130 Taiwan dollars (donno
what the conversion rate is) (160 for the side story vols.)
The Taiwanese manga and novel editions are authorized editions and are
usually of the same quality as the originals, and usually a bit cheaper
than the originals. So if you read neither Japanese nor Chinese, it
may not be a bad idea to get the Chinese editions =)
As for LoGH artbooks, Nikaku used to carry the 2nd LoGH roman album, but
it might have sold out. I couldn't find the 1st roman album but I know
Walter has a copy =)
