hehe its awesome to see people are getting into battletech literature :D

I have to say im not a fan of the new dark ages stuff though...I remember i picked up all of the battletech novels at a yard sale a few years back for like 20 dollars, i felt a little bad for buying them but im guessing the person didn't know the treasure trove of stuff they had :d

I picked up the TROs and game manuals used from hobby stores around my area, if you are starting to get into it some comic shops and used book stores would be your best bet.

Finding BT books in Brick and Mortar stores is hit and miss at best.

Down here in florida, I've been able to find three places that carry the novels and/or the other books... and that's having checked in orlando, jacksonville, and the south florida metro area.

I have to say, my favorite is the legend of Jade Phoenix trilogy...the end of the last book actually brought a tear to my eye :P

the way the author describes the scene when they accept the gene can make even my chest swell with pride :D

I read most of Twilight of The Clans, and all the Archer Christifori books.  Thanks to this thread, I just reserved the Warrior books from my library.
Is it going to suck reading the last 2 of the Warrior books without the first one?

I would like start reading the battlemech novals, i read many books as it is, mainly historical fiction and scifi.
I have been a big fan of the mechwarrior pc games and this mod, i really want to start reading the books.
Can anyone tell a decent online bookstore in the UK where i can order them ? I have had a look at the sellers i use at the mo and i find them pretty hard to get hold of.

Does amazon sell to the UK?

If they do, you should be able to get a heck of a deal.
