The Red Queen and The Sending
The Sending: Spotted now in bookstores around Australia
Wednesday 26 October 2011 - 21:55:00
The reports are sparse, but there's been a few sightings (and purchases!) of The Sending in book stores around Australia today. If you have pre-ordered The Sending, now is a good time to check if it's there, 4 days earlier than the Penguin release date of the 31st October.
[hr][/hr]So check about, and report back if you spot copies or have your pre-order fulfilled early in this thread!
Once you've finished reading, remember that we'll have to maintain a spoiler-free zone for a little while for members who haven't gotten a hold of the book. You can discuss the goings-on in The Sending in The Sending Spoiler Thread, though.
If you're outside of Australia, and wondering how to get a hold of The Sending, we have a little news.
- I heard from Random House (Isobelle's US publisher) this week, that The US edition of The Sending won't be available until July 2012 (and that this date is tentative). Full details in this thread.
- If you can't wait that long, you can purchase The Sending online in it's Penguin / Australian form, from several booksellers who ship internationally. Thus far we have QBD and Fishpond as confirmed international shippers.
- None of us are sure where the entries on Book Depository are coming from (the ones that say both The Sending and The Red Queen are due out in two weeks). Given the Random House release date of next year, and that the Book Depository entries look like those editions, this seems to be in error. We've tried contacting Book Depository this week to verify what editions they're selling, but haven't had a reply yet (but will update as soon as we get one!).
Happy reading everyone, and good luck tracking down your copy!
