1) Five stories? Is that it?

2)Oh, cool. One of them is "Sorcerer, Conjurer, Wizard, Witch", which the previous two Diogenes books kept referring to.

3)Ah. And another is "Moon, Moon, Moon". Yes, it's a Jepperson story, so they can't not include it, but it's free on Newman's website. (I had the same reaction to "Tomorrow Town" in The Man From The Diogenes Club).

4)"Seven Stars"! I would happily have paid full price for this book if it was just "Seven Stars", which I got from the library many years ago, and have been vaguely looking for ever since. And "Organ Donors", which ISTR was bundled with the library's copy of "Seven Stars" (along with "Angel Down", "End of the Pier Show", "Fish Story" and "Where The Bodies Are Buried 2020". Basically an introduction each for Edwin, Richard, Not-Philip-Marlowe-Honest, Sally and Jerome).

So that'll do me fine.

This. I've been trying to get hold of "Seven Stars" for ages, so I was really happy when the cover art was released and there was the Jewel of Seven Stars front and centre.

Discovering that "Sorcerer, Conjurer, Wizard, Witch" actually exists and isn't just some kind of meta in-joke in the endnotes was a nice bonus.
