"Knight Rider Legacy", the only complete guide to KR and its spinoffs, is now available for purchase on Barnes and Noble.com! I encourage all of you to purchase a copy - you won't be disappointed! It can currently be purchased on both B&N.com and iUniverse.com; however, I suggest everyone go to B&N.com since it is much cheaper. It won't be much longer before it is available on Amazon.com and on sites around the world!

Thank you all for your support during this project!

In that case, i wanna be the first to congratulate Joe and Richie for their hard work and dedication in getting this book out! I don't know if the sites you mentioned is for UK residents but I'll have a look but if not then that's no worries as I'll have to wait till it comes out at amazon.co.uk.

That's the first time i've seen the cover of the book and it looks superb!

Makes my mouth water....hehe!

From what I have heard, it depends on the amount that is sold, and if that store wants to carry the book in their inventory.

Yeah me too, congratulations and yes Joe you're right it is cheaper - $16.00!!!

Coming from the UK the shipping's cheap as well $12.95 for INTERNATIONAL AIR MAIL. that is very good since Amazon.com are more expensive.

I am looking forward to the book; wow 454 pages that's huge! - does it have pictures of the K4000 etc - interior/exterior.

I will certainly give a review of the book and mention it on here.

Many thanks fellas for putting this together; Knight Riders one of my favourite series so this will certainly be a good tool for reference.

Since Joe is not around, I have been asked by him to post this.

As much as they would love the advertising for the book, since it is copyrighted material, you do need to ask one or both of the authors for permission to post the image on your site. Legalities and such.

Am I ever gonna have money in my wallet, or am I going to be forever broke from buying Star Trek, Knight Rider, Anime, and Mac stuff? The world may never know...

[Edit: I should not have linked directly to the book; I changed it to the purchase page)

Well, I won't be able to get a copy of Legacy until sometime in the early half of September.

So, I'll have to be careful about any future refrences from the book here on the board until I can snag my own copy.

Ok, this is a little note to tell you that the iUniverse link no longer will give you the entire book, but will only lead you up to the first chapter.

And for all of you out there who are hesitating: Are you sure? The book is 30% off at B&N.com....and if you follow the link on the entrance page to this site ( www.knightrideronline.com ) or go over to the Knight Rider Collective. ( http://knightridercollective.8m.com ) and go through the links there, 5% of the purchase will go to Knight Rider Online or the Knight Rider Collective/Edwards sites to preserve parts of the KR community.

<STRONG>can i just ask if it is colour or black and white, and what size pages?

there's a sci-fi/cult tv shop in belfast called hyperspace which brings in dvds/vids/books/models, you name it, from abroad, for its customers, hassle free, within 14 days max!

[img]images/smiles/icon_smile.gif[/img]

working on getting my kr section at least started soon, having the brand new book to review would be cool!

congrats joe! [img]images/smiles/icon_biggrin.gif[/img]</STRONG><HR></BLOCKQUOTE>

Black and white, 6" x 9"

It's $16 at Barnes and Noble right now, and only as long as their Summer Sale lasts. (Unknown as to when it will end.) It may be cheaper than Amazon.com, unless it gets in under Amazon's summer sale.

And yes, congrats to the authors for getting the job done!
