It was sent from the bookstore today, now I just play the waiting game and try not to chew off my legs in anticipation.
This means I'll be back from my exile after finishing it to make new stupid theories, yay.

Heh, it's not in the local Waterstones yet. I would have had to check tomorrow, and then Thursday, and then Friday, but I've got them to call me when it arrives to save me bus fare and whatnot.

Man, if I get it after Abyss I am going to laugh so hard.

Hello, soldiers, look at your mage, now back to me, now back at your mage, now back to me. Sadly, he isn’t me, but if he stopped being an unascended mortal and switched to Sole Spice, he could smell like he’s me. Look down, back up, where are you? You’re in a warren with the High Mage your cadre mage could smell like. What’s in your hand, back at me. I have it, it’s an acorn with two gates to that realm you love. Look again, the acorn is now otataral. Anything is possible when your mage smells like Sole Spice and not a Bole brother. I’m on a quorl.

Mine just got into Philly.

I doubt they are going to get it up here early enough for it to be on the delivery trucks for tomorrow.

thanks to amazon being morons I have two copies, due to the fact that I ordered another book I got the second for Â£11, which isn't a whole lot of use, I might see if someone wants it cheap.

Got mine last night when i got home from work, sly readidge in bed and a quick one this morning before work and im already on page 32.

Well chuffed. I was in a mid re read of Midnight tides in a pre emptive reminder before this one cam eout but i didnt quite make it. Oh well. ill read TOTH and then go back to Midnight tides then re read up to TTH and read it again.

Your sad!

"I think i was a bad person before. Before this time. I do not try to be good now but i am not bad. Perhaps if i try harder i may get a better hand dealt next time? But surely that makes it pointless? Perhaps i am good. Just good at being pointless. But that would make me bad. Bad at having a point. Ah…. I see now. I was nothing before, I am nothing now. I am bad purely because im pointless. "

Mine is out for delivery now, and I am at work.

As an aside, I almost punched a guy in the skyway today because he had it and was reading it while walking.

I have never mugged someone before, but was sorely tempted.
