Ever since Hetan made that "prologoues soon" post, I've been feeling like it's christmas all over again.

Transworld have only one chance to redeem themselves or they will be branded as semi-evil forever.

People are dying on the streets, and this is all we can think about. We are the people on the streets, dying because we haven't eaten in two and a half weeks.

I'm sure they are doing everything they can to get the prologues here...but think about it...it only benefits anyone connected to the publishing to make us wait and drool more...damn those conniving bastards! :D

Apparently it is perhaps a red tape issue.

I suppose that is true but the feverish interest in the prologue will drop fairly soon so now is probably the ideal time to release the prologues given events.

Hetan...

Any new info, or are we all just twiddlling our thumbs waiting patiently (and somewhat hungrily) for what tidbits might come our way?

PS, I know you already read the book. Lucky.

Lol @ Obdigore

I was just about to post this :-

"The copy edited manuscript for Toll the Hounds is due this week – once that’s in and have given it the once over, we’ll get it over to you."

I guess I'll be creating a Toll the Hounds forum soon :D

It takes you two weeks to read a prologue? Either you've got serious dislexia or you're REALLY into this series.

So, I win an advance copy of TotH? Cool, thanks!

If you could, in the future, let me have advance copies of all SE and ICE work, I wouldn't have to post questions and whatnot right before you posted answers, instead you would look magnificent for bringing us info without us having to ask for it.

It really is the best solution for all involved.

In other news, YIPEE!

And I thought I looked magnificent already :D :D

Just to calm you all down, there is a difference in time between our idea of getting the prologue over to us and the editor's, so don't get tooooo excited just yet :D

the difference being we'll have to steal it from the editors, or die of suspense.

I wonder if we will see any new maps in Toll the Hounds. Yeah I know it takes us back to Genabackis...but we could have sub-plots involved in the main story taking place elsewhere...

Must ... not... flatter mods... for I will never... get what I want.

So, you are saying the editing house will get it this week, and we should wait till valentines day, to prove how much SE loves us all?

I think what she is saying is that the wheels are in motion...but can't put a timetable on when the wheels will actually move the cart....errr...or something like that.

We must kill some people to get more souls to power the wagon?

Anyway, thank you for the info Hetan, I look forward to seeing a new forum.

so you're saying the wheels are moving, only we don't know what the size of the wheels is, so we don't know how much the wheel would actually have to move before they moved a certain distance (because the wheels are very small, and thus one turn of the wheel won't get the cart as far as a bigger wheel)?
