I just pre-ordered my copy on Amazon and was wondering how many other people had done the same, is anyone else out there excited about the Forerunner trilogy? The 343 podcast interview with Greg Bear makes it sound like it's going to be a real masterpiece.

I live in Europe, sadly I have to wait at least a month before I can order Cryptum

Why bother pre-ordering a book?

It's Halo, it's not exactly going to sell out. I'll order it from Amazon after it's released at some point.

Pre-ordered. :D
Can't freaking wait!

  • 12.02.2010 3:14 PM PDT

I would, if I could :(
The only thing I can do is hope it will arrive here just as fast as new TFoR, one week after the release...

  • 12.02.2010 3:35 PM PDT

I did on Amazon.

Cave Johnson here, we're done!

PS: If you are reading this comment while imagining my voice, don't panic. That's just a side effect of the testing.

Pre-ordered, I also put in Eon so I can get used to the writing style. Here's hoping they both are amazing.

I might pre order the Novel, but I highly doubt that they would sell out. I've always wanted to learn more about the Forerunners, so I hope this novel will teach me.

I dislike you.

You pre-order books for the same reason you pre-order games.

havent decided to get it for 15 and shipping on amazon or 25 and shipping signed from this other site. Oh decisions.

  • 12.02.2010 8:56 PM PDT

Now that, my friend, is a hard decision.

For what reason? I pre-order a game because of bonuses you get or because it is cheaper when you do so or because it may sell out.

I never pre-order a book.

Also, me thinking pre-ordering a book a waste of time means you dislike me?

That's a little... strange.

That link you gave me doesn't have anything to do with an Interview with Greg Bear. :( Is there a correct link somewhere that has this interview?

EDIT: Nvm. . .found it . Googled "Sparkast" 1st hit has both Podcast files
