Or so it seems.
My story begins in august as the print edition of Halls of the Mountain King and Dwarves of the Ironcargs became available.
I ordered both on LULU to be shipped to Dublin, Ireland.
On 18th August the Books were shipped from LULU....
.... and got lost.
They simply did not arrive.
Now, I have a monthly subscription at Paizo, have KQ subscription and order a lot of other books online.
Never happened before that a book simply got lost.
Sadly I used the standard shipment for 7 EUR instead of the 26 EUR First Class shipment option.
Therefore LULU was not able to investigate where and how the book got lost and they frankly did not care enough to check.
That was 36 EUR or about 52 USD wasted.
But I really wanted the Books.
So I re-ordered them.
This Monday they were shipped and arrived today (at my office because post is faster here).
I eagerly opened the package.
Dwarves of the Ironcrags is fine.
Halls of the Mountain King has a gorgeous Cover. Then I opened the Book an found the "Liber Sitra Ahra" inside. This is a book about demons and a demon worshipping sect.
WTF?
Just went back to LULU and complained.
Maybe they will graciously send me th correct book.
So that was my story I wanted to share.  |

I had a look into the content of the book I got. Let me tell you, I am not easily offended and have no issues with matur content.
But the Stuff that is in there is simply disgusting. Think of what you heard and read about Satanic Rituals and you will get an impression of what this book is about.
Anyway, LULU replied on Friday 25th and wanted Scans that verify that I got the wrong book.
I attached these and a scan of a page with a really disgusting description of a ritual.
I also copied Wolfgang in to let him know what happened here.
Wolfgang himself also e-mailed LULU supporting me.
That was on Saturday.
Since then I have had no reply from them.
So the story is not finished yet.  |

Yesterday, after chasing LULU on Monday, I got a reply from them.
They will re-order the Book and send it to me.
Finally!  |

I just received the printe Book from LULU and this time there is Halls on the Cover and under the Cover.
All is good and can shred the Satanic Book I received first. |

Awesome!
Glad it worked out.
Weird that it happened in the first place. |
