Interesting... I'd already gotten the normal version...

Didn't expect there to be a "Collector's Edition" as well.

The books are cool though as they are ones you found in Ultima 6 (not sure about 7, but definitely 6)

Going off the top of my head, the main ones in 6 were:

Hubert's Hair Raising Adventure: Sherry's favorite bedtime story usually read to her by Lord British although she can recite it from memory

Wizard of Oz: Found in the Lycaeum, asked for by Lord British for a mini-quest

Plans for Making a Hot Air Balloon: (or something thereabouts) Needed to complete the Hot Air balloon which was needed to fly over the mountains to the Shrine of Singularity in the gargoyle lands

Didn't expect there to be a "Collector's Edition" as well.

I got a "Limited Edition" of some book.

There are also "First Edition"s.

Whelp, you just assured I'll be spending a lot more time with Ms. Nighteyes.

Thanks for your observations
