I actually purchased my copy about a week earlier than expected, (the 23rd Sept, I think) haven't read it yet, but it's next on my list to read. Went into my local bookstore to pre-order it and to my delight, was told it was in the storeroom waiting to be unpacked. Was asked if I wanted to wait the few minutes it would take to locate it, and told them I'd be more than happy to. Am looking very much forward to reading it.

Normally a new Wilderness novel would cause me to put my current reading aside and dive right in, but unfortunately, I started reading Stephen King's Dark Tower 7 the day before, thinking I'd have time to finish it before buying and starting FATS. Just hope you don't keep us waiting 25 years for the end of your Wilderness series.

VyperBB-- I absolutely understand. I'm halfway through DT7 myself, and while it's making me sad and miserable, I can't stop reading.

I bought my copy today!!! and I can't wait to start reading it. I've just finished ITW again and thought i would re-read DOADS and LITC again before i started it, but i can't wait a minute longer! I HAVE to start it NOW!

I had no idea it was out! I have been obsessivly waiting - along with my sisters, aunts and best friend - for this book. Harrah! I will let you know when I am done.
