Hey guys, i been looking for Book 3 The Spectral Blaze which is part of the The Brotherhood of the Griffon everywhere and can't seem to find one that's purchasable for a reasonable amount of money anywhere. (Amazon had a used copy at $80 or so and im not paying that lol, Barnes and Noble don't offer it either) If anyone knows where to find it i would greatly appreciate it and yes they do sell it for kindles or audibles but call me old fashioned i prefer a real book to seeing it on a screen or hearing it. I appreciate any help on it.

| I could never find a copy either. I tried looking in all the area half priced book stores. Nothing. I sure as hell wouldn't pay 80 bucks for a soft cover. I feel you pain... |

| I had the same problem about a month ago. I was looking all over for The Spectral Blaze, Cry of the Ghost Wolf, and Key of Stars. I eventually called Wizards of the Coast and they told me they had copies of the Spectral Blaze in stock and all I had to do was get someone to order it for me. So I went to one of my local game stores and had them order it for me. Eight dollars and some change later it was mine. I got a copy of Cry of the Ghost Wolf on ebay, but I'm still looking for a decently priced Key of Stars. I don't know why those three books go for so much online, but it is definitely a pain in the ass trying to get them. |

| That's pretty cool that WotC was able to help you in that manner. I figured you'd have to go through a distributor as opposed to being able to get a local store to buy from them directly. |
Look for me and my content at EN World (user name: sanishiver). |

| Probably you can use a tool called eMule and try searching in it. I am not sure if it is available but you can give a try. |

Wow, WotC still has paper-and-ink copies of The Spectral Blaze? I did not know that.
When people ask me how to get it, I generally steer them toward the eBook and audiobook options. As far as the eBook goes, those who don't own a Kindle and don't want to buy one can download a Kindle app for free to the gadget of their choice.
I realize some people much prefer traditional books, but at least if you buy the eBook, you get to find out what happens in the story without paying the exorbitant prices that some used book dealers are asking. |

You should probably snatch them up, sign them, and sell them to fans yourself. ;) |
