Now this one looks interesting, unlike the 2! cheap knock off bios I saw on Amazon US while checking to see if Devil in a Coma was available. I'm pre ordering

Have ordered mine. Think it promises to be much better than some of the cheap cash-in bios that have popped up since Mark's passing, especially as he was directly involved in putting it together with the author.
Looking forward to the release-date.

An update on this release.
I ordered my book through Rough Trade, the release date kept on getting pushed back, the last I heard it was to be shipped 28 October.
I logged into my account last night and it said it hadn't been shipped.
No less than 30 minutes later Rough Trade sent me an email saying they had to cancel my order:
"Due to an unexpected stock shortage from our supplier, we have been cut back on our order with them and are unable to supply this item for your order. We can confirm that you have not been charged for the item, very sorry for any inconvenience caused by this shortage".
Don't know why I was one of the unlucky ones to have their order cancelled, perhaps they gave priority to residents in Europe instead of sending mine to Australia. Either way I'm pretty disappointed as I don't think I will be able to get my hands on this book now without someone over charging me.
Anyone else get snubbed?

I ordered mine direct from Resident Music (to Australia) and have seen the release date continually pushed back and is now TBC....

Bad news Rimb (as you may already know):
<<The following products have been updated to status: Refunded
1 x IMAN KAKAI-LAZELL - 'DARK MARK' LANEGAN - CONFESSION OF THE NIGHT PORTER - LIMITED 206PP HARDBACK BOOK
Hey Christopher,
We’re just getting in touch as unfortunately we have some bad news regarding the ‘Dark Mark’ Lanegan book by Iman Kakai-Lazell that you’ve pre-ordered. We have been chasing up the delivery of the book as it was due to arrive at the end of October, and we’ve just heard back from the publisher with an update.
It seems that the book has encountered legal issues that are currently stopping it from being published and as there is no timeline for this being resolved, it looks like the book will not be arriving anytime soon. As we do not have any further information, we thought it was only fair to refund your order for now – if/when the books do arrive, we will be in touch with everyone who pre-ordered first to let you know so that you do not miss out.
We’ve processed a refund for your order, which should be back in your account in the next few days. I’m very sorry for any disappointment here, but I hope that’s okay. Please let us know if you have any other questions.
All the best, Oscar Mailorder Team>>
Ah well, maybe it will get released someday. I wonder which "legal issues" came up, seeing as Mark was involved prior to his death. I know it's available on the moochin' about Bandcamp page with an alternate cover / title, but I think I'll settle for the refund for now

I reached out to the author on instagram when my order was delayed from Norman Records due to a "legal issue." She said it would be resolved and it would ship soon, and it did. Received it in Canada a week or so ago, quite promptly after it shipped.
The author may have some extra stock she is holding onto for this type of situation. She was selling them on ebay and bandcamp. Reach out to her on instagram ASAP, she was friendly and responded quickly when I contacted her. Hopefully she will have one for anyone who's order got cancelled.

Appreciate all the responses, couldn't locate it on ebay so ordered through bandcamp - 17 copies remain for those interested.

I got two copies of this via Rough Trade in London. One copy for me, one copy as a gift to a friend. It's a lovely book, beautifully printed and tactile to the touch. The artist really captures the mood of Dark Mark, and many of the words twinned with images are very poignant.
