A picture is worth a thousand words, or so they say. . .

So follow this link.

I reckon our favorite Hello Kitty mod will send his feline ninjas my way before the sun goes down!

As for me, I'll skip the gym and read a little. . . :shocking:

Cheers,

No, sorry Pat, if you really are going to give up the blog, I'm afraid you'll have to forward that to me.

I'll allow you to keep it IF, and ONLY if, you're keeping the blog going. Them's the rules.
meh. Link was dead :(

Is that 635 A4 pages, as it seems it was printed out to you, or 635 book-size pages? Not that it matters a lot since it's still quite a lot, but it could quickly differ a good 200/300 pages of reading fun :shocking:

YOU SUCK.
HiddenOne. You son of a bitch. You slimy, skulking, low-posting scumbag. You knew it would come to this. Roundabout, maybe. Tortuous, certainly. But here we are, you and me again. I started the train on you so many many hours ago, and now I'm going to finish it. Die HO. Die. This is for last time, and this is for this game too. This is for all the people who died to your backstabbing, treacherous, "I sure don't know what's going on around here" filthy lying, deceitful ways. You son of a bitch. Whatever happens, this is justice. For me, this is justice. Vote HiddenOne Finally, I am at peace.

It's a set of page proofs, so the book will be 635 pages long...

And you think you hate my now!?! Wait till I post the pic of the proofs for TCG in a couple of weeks! :shocking:

I only envy you because you get to read the stuff before all of us can, and apparantly you're closer to SE and/or Esslemont than most of us. But even though I envy you, I am happy in your place. And am patient... patient until I finally end reading Don Quichot and can read Crack'd pot trail, Stonewielder and tCG (since they'll most likely have release by then already) as well ;)

Odd.

I noticed they put up the official page: Release date is 25 November and official pagecount is 720, exactly the same of RotCG.

RotCG was actually 700 pages, but the other 20 were because of glossary + map + Dramatis Personae. So they are usually quite accurate. But from 635 pages to 720 it's quite a stretch...

mebbe the discrepancy is the prologue of tCG, or the first chapter?

how sweet would that be?

You know, I'm on to you Pat. You pretended to stop your blog just so you would get some pity manuscripts from the publishers, didn't you, you sly dog.
