New books
Does anyone have any information on these new Bradbury books that are coming early next year?

1. We'll Always Have Paris

http://www.amazon.co.uk/Well-Always-Have-Paris-Bradbury...id=1221677085&sr=1-4

Is these all new short stories?

2. Ray Bradbury: Legendary Fantasy Writer

http://www.amazon.co.uk/Ray-Bradbury-Legendary-Fantasy-...id=1221677085&sr=1-5

Is this a new biography?

http://www.amazon.co.uk/New-Ray-Bradbury-Review-2008/dp...id=1221677085&sr=1-8

What is this book about?

The first is a collection of stories (at least mostly new if not entirely, I believe).

The second I have not heard of.

The third is a scholarly study. Touch here and here.

The second book is new to me, but the publisher specialises in books for schools, and has published biographies of popular cultural figures (and historical figures) for young readers. I would guess, therefore, that this will be a biography of Bradbury for schoolkids.

The New Ray Bradbury Review is the first issue of a new journal, which is expected to be published once a year. The first issue focuses on Bradbury's work in adaptation in different media, and includes articles on his work in film, television and radio. Most of the articles are written in a clear style (it's an academic journal, but it's not heavy going). It also contains some of Bradbury's TV scripts. As a contributor to the first issue, I saw an electronic version of the first issue some time ago.

Looking for some light reading? Bloom's Modern Critical Views on Ray Bradbury. (Not sure if this is a new edition or an update to an older edition.)

And there is a guy on eBaY who has quoted a higher MSRP, then discounted it with free shippiing so it is still $59+.
