What's that book series about?

It came out today, I had mine preordered, so it was 30% off, and what was left, was covered by handy dandy Borders Gift Certificates.

And Ryuujin, it's a fantasy series, what do you think it's about?

It's about swordsmen and Magic the One Power and non-literal Dragons.

Speaking of classes, mine suck. My first one is eight-in-the-fucking-AM. Not to mention on my way to said class this morning I slipped on some frosty pavement and fell directly on my knee.

Still, it's nice to be at that school when there are actually people there. Plenty of people to beat soundly at Tekken Tag and Virtual On.

I don't know how to be sexy. If I catch a girl looking at me and our eyes lock, I panic and open mine wider. Then I lick my lips and rub my genitals. And mouth the words "You're dead."

Mine started at 7:35. But the point is I had nothing but night classes last quarter thus I was able to sleep in for as long as I wanted every single morning.

That, my friends, was heaven.

Oh well, at least I can get food in the cafeteria now that's actually fresh as opposed to having been sitting out all day. You can get two eggs, hash browns, bacon or sausage and toast for $3.50. That ain't half bad given how overpriced most stuff in there is, even if the scrambled eggs look like yellow plasic diarrhea.

Interesting.. TOR shipped the book for sale starting today. Every bookstore I've seen has had posters up for the last month saying "January 7th." Are you certain you aren't confused and just remembering those posters, flyers, promotional materials instead? If not, where is this bookstore that gets things a week early, for I should like to visit it.

Math tutorial was cancelled today, and I got to go for a nature walk.

So today was a pretty good day, by my reckoning. The only thing that was bad was when I found out they had taken down the log near the riverside that I loved to stretch out in the sun on for hours.

He could've also seen Winter's Heart, Hardback, which could be confused, easily.

But seriously, I know today was TOR's publish date... Many a WoT fanatic has scrawled "January 7th..." across hard surfaces with sharp knives.

I would point out that i start at 7am and have to get on the school bus at like 6:10am, which means I get up at 5, but you would just find something else to bitch about.

no it was definately Crossroads they had it at Borders. They could have accidentally put it on the shelves before release date as it was likely in the storeroom for a few days already. That would be bad because there are hefty fines for selling books prior to the release date

It's possible that they could've released it before the initial date, but to do so would go against the Publisher's Release Date.

Any bookstore that goes against that agreement and releases the book before the Publisher gives the go-ahead risks getting on the publisher's bad side, and thus can be removed from consideration for all future releases.

So, odds are Malbi was having a hallucination and/or lying to try and impress chicks. Shoot him.

We're onto something now.

How long did you see it, kid? Forty minutes? Half an hour?

It wouldn't have been on the shelf for more than ten minutes before some manager yanking it.

I still smell a rat in cod's clothing. Time to come clean, perp.

An admission of guilt.

We have witnesses, buddy, that put you at Crossroads at the time of the murder with Ms. Parker. Now you're gonna sit here and lie to me?

You know...you've struck out with every girl here...but I bet you're gonna get reeeeeeal lucky in prison, boy. Now, why don't we hear the truth?

I hadn't thought of that, I couldn't figure out who it was... But now that you mention it, it does sort of look like a younger Emma Frost...
Emma Frost r leet. Now-a-days, She's like Professor X. Only cynical. And with boobs.

The prologue is 85 pages long, but fortunately, I happen to find this prologue a lot more interesting than the other prologues...
Not out of the Prologue yet, as I've only been reading inbetween classes (I generally find it hard to read at home, because I have other things I can be doing easily, like posting here).

So far though, no mention of the Huge Potential Spoiler events at the end of Winter's Heart.
