Received my copy today.... looks legit... a major step up over my existing copy!   :-+

Seems to have a lot more pages than my old copy!  (Which I will  flog off at some point on EBay)

Is the improved edition so different?

The price goes up and then a day later its back to £23.50. I wonder what is going on with their system.
 My copy is due for delivery today.

You can track price history here

A trick with amazon is stuff something in your wish list for a couple of months then the basket and leave it in there for a week and price will drop 20% or so.  :-DD

Mine arrived. Looks good. I thought they might have figured it out and stopped the order.

I can hardly complain about already having one but I need to suppress the urge to order a spare copy.

One for each room!
Don't give me any stupid ideas. I've got plenty of those myself.

No chance! I've had AoE induced jelly legs after gracing the porcelain throne a few times. Definitely PDF material in the bathroom  :-DD

It now has big letters on the front that say "improved".

I have the AoE 3 hardcopy - but the Kindle edition is on sale as well.

And before you scream at me Kindle is crap for textbooks - it is the Expanded Layout edition ("Print Replica") - that won't read on a normal kindle - but only on PC's, Tablets & Phones.

Version on Kindle is 7th printing of 2016 with corrections.

So a very nice "portable edition" for GBP 23,- with full text search. Content Index pages are not linked to destination pages it seems. :( But there is pop-out index

I would say it is worth every dime. :) - I know one could probably find it on the internet in PDF format. But I do like paying for things I like and use.

Surprised no one has mentioned that the AoE X Chapters went on sale yesterday (at least, in the UK).
