"Haluatko velhoksi?" That's how you say "So you want to be a wizard?" in Finnish. The Finnish edition of the first YW novel, Velhonuoret 1: Haluatko velhoksi?, has now been joined on Finnish bookstore shelves by Velhonuoret 2: Syvinta Velhouttä, "Deep Wizardry." The publisher in Finland is WSOY.

The Luitingh-Sijthoff (Dutch) edition of book 2, Diepe toverij, is now on the shelves, in company with book 1, Dus Jij Wilt Tovenaar Worden. Dutch and Belgian fans can find them at BoekenWereld.

...So you're missing a copy of the Russian-language Young Wizards editions?

Then relax, because Ozon.ru now has a page where you can find the first four books in the main series, published by ECSMO-Press.

The page also features links, not only to Russian editions of the "Feline Wizards" novels The Book of Night with Moon and To Visit the Queen, but to Mindblast and Kill Station, the first two of the "Space Cops" books [nothing to do with the TV series] written by DD and her husband Peter Morwood.

There may shortly be news from ECSMO about plans to publish more of the YW novels in Russia. If you're interested, check back here from time to time.
