...and the bit below, might be worth a skim.  Hasbro don't make 'em like they used to. Thanks to aricosaur! The Transformers Archive |

News Credits: 2 | ppl who complain abt furmans skills (at least of his past work, i'm not ready to vouch for him now) should read this books. his snappy pace and constrainted creativity really excels in this short story format. ignoring the details/continuity inconsistencies of course.
he may be a hack, but an entertaining one. |

Perchance to Dream is still listed as a pre-order, but the other four (Aspects of Evil, Way of the Warrior, Fallen Star, Earthforce*) are all $7.95 each, eligible for free shipping and are part of a "4 for 3" promotion...which translates to, you get all four for $24.85 shipped.
*Earthforce is inexplicably $1 more at $8.95, but whatever...you still get one free, dammit! |

i just noticed some tales are not in sequence according to continuity. doh.
also, i suppose tales of the future TF conclude with alternative galvy in control of cybertron and autobots on earth with unicron still trapped inside the matrix  |

In terms of which TPBs to buy it should be these 3 - Last Stand
- Primal Scream
- Matrix Quest
Primal Scream and Matrix Quest are the definites, Last Stand is where the "Return of Megatron" arc starts and possibly will have the appearance of the Classic Pretender shells  BotCon 2006 |
