Volume One
the Dust Jacket has torn on virtually every remaining book, it will need to be replaced. and will require some intense labor to complete.
Therefore it may be released after Vol. 2,
We would LOVE to have the dust jacket for Volume One reprinted now, however multiple printers have told us the cost of doing a dust jacket ONLY is PROHIBITIVELY EXPENSIVE!!

The unforeseen issue, during 2020-21 when we were trying to get Volume 2 printed, along with the Vol. 1 dust jacket,
