Argh!

I am 2/3 of the way thru Stephen Donaldson's latest Covenant book, Against All Things Ending, and will be hard pressed to finish a Stormed Fortress re-read by 10/27.

Perseverance.....

Looks like it's time I pre-ordered this thing!

Where's the cheapest place to get it? It's £20 on Play.com!

Clansman · 3rd October 2011, 03:03 PM

Teaser time, folks!!! Here is a link to the ENTIRE first chapter set (one big chapter, followed by two shorter ones, with a triplet of paragraphs at the end):

The first chapter set is absolutely fantastic.

I preordered a copy from The Book Depository, think it was like $12 (i'm at work so can't confirm price) for the paperback but will have to wait for it to be shipped downunder.

Clansman · 17th October 2011, 07:04 PM

The Book Depository tells me that the orders have shipped!!! So excited!!!

Clansman · 27th October 2011, 06:53 PM

IT IS IN MY HANDS!!!! Okay, you lot won't be hearing from me for a while...

Pleasant reading Clanny.

Ross · 29th October 2011, 06:44 PM

Enjoy Clanny...I won't be getting it for a while.

Clansman · 9th December 2011, 08:46 PM

this. book. is. astounding.

I read it nice and slowly, and for fear of spoilers, I can't say anything. This sucker, as expected, explodes off the page. I love this story. I'll start a new thread for a spoiler topic on Initiate's Trial.

Sounds pretty amazing.

I'm getting it for Christmas. Will most probably be the first book I read in 2012.

Ross · 28th December 2011, 08:55 AM

Firstly, I hope everyone had a good Christmas!

Secondly, I have the book in my hands! Can't wait to get going.

Hope everyone had a merry christmas and a happy new year. I am eagerly awaiting the arrival of my copy of Initiate's Trial, (having bought it online with a gift card I was given). It's shipped, but I don't like waiting.

Hope you had a Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year.

I've read the first section and thought it was very good so your wait will be an agonizing one!

I have now received my copy fo Initiate's Trial. Hopefully I'll soon be able to join the other (spoiler) thread. Love what I've read so far.

The mass market version of Initiate's Trial is out in the UK now if anyone was waiting for a normal sized paperback version.
http://www.harpercollins.co.uk/Title...-9780007217830

It seems the USA release date was delayed, and it is now due out on the 25th September. Australia gets it on the 1st September but I brought mine from the UK, so already have it.

Janny never mentioned anything, but she might have some paperback versions for sale at Dragon Con which starts this Friday, if anyone is going.
