Congratulations for finally getting it out Jim. A book! I mean, woah!

Had it on preorder, read it, am recommending it to others. It really does a good job of going inside my head, putting an enthusiast gamer’s thoughts to paper. It’s not not too long, either.

I’m generally against hardcovers just because of the size and weight (we have a lot of books) but naturally make exceptions when need be. Such as when there’s something out that I can’t be certain will be available in paperback later on.

Anyone else find that they seem to be spending more time reading about games than they are actually playing them?

Welcome to my world. :P

I’m really looking forward to getting hold of this book. Have been for a while! Anyone else find that they seem to be spending more time reading about games than they are actually playing them?

I got my copy from the Amazon UK reseller “thebookdepository” (or something similar) and they were fine.

I blame Iain M. Banks. His “The Algebraist” is preventing my order containing The Book from shipping, after magically turning from five days availability to six weeks like ten minutes after I placed my order. It should be almost there by now though.

I must admit I haven’t bought this yet, but it’s been on my mental “books to buy in the near future” list since the last time it was posted about here. I should actually have some money soon as well, so I promise I will get around to buying it!

Edit: “Availability: Temporarily out of stock.” Curse you, Amazon! Guess I’ll have to buy it from one of the third party sellers.
