What's this Omnibus book? Is that a collection of a whole bunch of Nigel Findley novels or is that a novel that I've never heard of before? I can't seem to find it anywhere, did it not get released yet?

I just picked up 2XS, and I was going to pick up the rest of Findley's work after I finished this novel, but if I can get it all in one package, I might think about waiting.

It's exactly that -- a collection of his work.  So it's right what you're looking for, sounds like (and this way you'll have two copies of 2XS, which means you can loan one to friends to get them addicted).  :)

In fairness,  the intention has always been to release them, but I don't think the publishing houses ever let them sort out the licensing issues :-\

The IP is a tangled hell.  Don't forget that Microsoft owns part of the IP!

Ugh - if only the novels were treated separately from the rest of the IP.

Which might actually be part of the problem as well, Roc was the company that put out the novels, not FASA.

So wait, you are saying our books are caught between a Roc and a Micro-space? :P
