That's really awesome! I'm shocked you are able to get the price down so low.

Ordered one of these.
Received it a few days ago.
Whomever handled it was eating an apple flavored tootsie roll and left the wrapper under the cover.
But otherwise, it's pretty decently bound.
When I buy a half dozen softbound for younger players, I will be able to recognize my copy.
Handy!

Ok ad I've said on Facebook the hard copy of the main rules is available in uk it's a huge £10.25 and is excellent the same quality I would expect in a book 3 times the price I recommend it whole heartedly.

Just got my hardcover of the rules today. So stoked. My paperback was starting to fall apart :(

So far only the Core Rulebook is available this way. What's the criteria for having this as an option? Minimum length?

knowledge from working with an author who publishes her novels through kdp the Hardcovers need to be reformatted slightly and cover images are different resolutions, so it's basically a bit of extra work on Solo's behalf to offer hardcovers

Demand. People rarely ask for more hardbacks.

It's a long way off, I know, but if CC can be a hardcover, that's how I'd prefer to buy it.

Actually Basic Rulebook, CC and FG would be a nice three pack of hardcovers

Anything that's likely to get dragged around and flipped through a lot year-round is a good candidate. FG is definitely one of those books. The Adventure modules get less wear and tear at my place. It's sporadic, for the time I'm running those particular scenarios. Then it's back to the stack in my file box...
