If members wish to promote it, here's the 'Press Release':

CITY OF DREDD is an unofficial guide to all the official Mega-City One locations to have ever featured in the vast JUDGE DREDD mythology and will overload the 'thrill-receptors' of even the most hard-core 'Dreddhead! In the year 2133AD, in the tumultuous decades after the GREAT ATOMIC WAR, the Earth's nations have been left devastated, falling into living nightmares where only the most brutal and phantasmagoric survive. The old world governments, fearful and corrupted, have been replaced by the JUDGES, an elite organisation part law-enforcer, part army, who rule with an iron fist. The Judges are more dangerous than the toughest criminal, alien invader or rampaging mutant horde, because only they have the LAW on their side! Among their number, one man with a resolve tougher than rockcrete has through the years of slaughter exemplified the very best and the worst that Mankind can offer. He is the ultimate law enforcer, the living legend that is JUDGE DREDD!

And the cover art:

I've been trying to e-mail the Nerve Centre regarding CITY OF DREDD, but my e-mails are bouncing. Is this the correct address: tharg@2000ADonline.com ?

COMMANDO FORCES · 17 May, 2011, 11:45:36 AM

Paid for, now where is it

Lets hope it arrives before Saturday, then I can have a good old read

John Caliber · 17 May, 2011, 01:17:39 PM

It takes something like 3-5 days to print, I think? I ordered six copies on Sunday and they'll still being processed.

Large48 · 17 May, 2011, 04:22:25 PM

$39.19 is that the correct price all in?

COMMANDO FORCES · 17 May, 2011, 04:26:09 PM

There's always one

TordelBack · 17 May, 2011, 04:26:55 PM

There's no chance you (or Lulu) will take children in exchange? Apparently I have to buy party food and birthday presents instead of City of Dredd this month. Grrrrrr.

Bat King · 17 May, 2011, 06:20:52 PM

Very pleased to see today arrive! I have the pdf and already enjoying it!!

I have the earluer incarbations too, the three volume pdf Streets of MC1. That has already been a huge help in plitting fir Play Dredd. As has tge Progology. I'll be using this quite a bit throughout the year.

Banging in an order for the paperback too. Won't be actually using that as much as the pdf. But I will enjoy carefully browsing it.

And for anyone unable to order it today, it'll still be available tomorrow, next week, next month, etc. You won't be disappounted with it, well unless you don't like having loads of facts at your fingertips!

I can sell you a copy at a reduced price? I got a batch at a discount. I can do you one for £15 (incl. second class postage)? I don't have any physical copies - am waiting for Lulu to dispatch. It's not something I can repeat indefinitely, before the rest of you start sending begging letters.

OK... having spoken to John earlier I've just read my post above...

Crickey there are a few good typos... In my defence, I was on a bus using a touch screen phone... I knew what I meant to type...

John, that's very generous of you, and many thanks, but hardly in your own best interests! I'll hopefully have some more money by June, and I'll buy a copy the proper way then. That, one hopes, is the beauty of POD - no fear of missing the boat. Incidentally, I've had nothing but positive experiences with Lulu, and I'm really looking forward to this!

Yeah, i should add to that- if anyone's looking at this and is nervous about print on demand, or lulu, don't be. Ive ordered several things from them and have been blown away by the quality. In many ways the books have been superior to what's in the shops. They havent, for instance, shed all their pages after opening (hello IDW's trade collection of deadworld!). Im itching to order this, john, and it'll be the first thing i buy come payday.

Now get to work on 'Universe of Strontium Dog'. Come on, chop chop.
