Hey all!

I'm currently in the process of completing my Discworld collection. So far I'm at 27/41. One thing threw me off, though, as I get to the later entries, past the letterboxed editions, I reached the Tiffany Aching novels, Wee Free Men, A Hat Full of Sky, etc. and I noticed that their size is incredibly different from the other Letterboxed and Doubleday Hardcover entries.

Did I get some "odd" edition, or are they all that small? I saw Maurice looks pretty small too. Are there editions of this, that are at least similar in size to the other Doubleday Discworld books, or will I have to deal with glaring size differences?

What about the Gift editions sold on discworld.com? Would anyone have comparison picutres?

>2 JerryMmm: Ah, pretty shelf! I'm still dealing with the paperbacks because I haven't found the hardcovers I want yet. I may never, since the ones I really want would have the Joe McLaren covers, and they may never get permission for that, but one can hope. :)

>6 JerryMmm: Very pretty! Now I have to ask. What are the two books on the bottom of the stack on the bottom shelf on the right? It looks like their cover ends are designed to make a picture when they are side by side. I love when that happens.

Thanks for the pictures! That's really annoying to see, since they're smack dab in the middle and the other Tiffany Aching book is back to the regular size.

Do you happen to know the size of these new "gift editions" of the Tiffany Aching books? I'd prefer getting those, if they're regular sized.
