My Waterstone order just arrived a good two days before the estimated arrival.  I suggest tracking it through USPS if you ordered from the same place.

The book officially releases in the UK tomorrow.  I was planning on getting a VPN service to mask my IP address and buy the ebook from this site:
https://www.kobo.com/nl/en/ebook/the-unholy-consult
I wanted to confirm that it worked first before posting my plans here.  Thankfully I just checked and the book i ordered last week is already out for delivery so I can spare myself the attempt.  If anyone wishes to try and get the book early this way TunnelBear, a popular and, what I read anyway, very reliable VPN service also has a free 7 day free trial.  I will try this tonight if my book isn't delivered for whatever reason and share what I find.

I'm pretty sure you can just make an account of Amazon.co.uk with a UK address and it should work, regardless of your IP.
That was Plan C.  There are many rooms within the Thousandfold Thought.  ^_^

Just wanted to share my backup plan for getting this book tonight.  I was going to download the VPN service, TunnelBear, which has a free 7 day trial.  I would use it to mask my IP address to be a UK address and then download the ebook from this website.

I would have tried it as soon as the clock struck midnight in the UK tonight and immediately shared my results with the people here if I succeeded but USPS' site just confirmed my UK book order is already out for delivery so I might not have to do this.

EDIT:  Just wanted to thank Madness for providing that bookstore with the free preview of the first 2 chapters.  It's what gave me this idea in the first place.

I am 100% Zauduyani.  I don't have my book yet but I needed to know what happened and I'm not a big anti-spoiler guy anyway.

Mine just shipped.  Reading through their site though it looks like a possible 2 week shiptime to USA.

I'm going to try switching my Kindle address or whatever and buy it on July 6 from the Amazon UK.  I just need this book ASAP honestly.

Gah!  This is so aggravating.  Anyone want to make some extra cash and ship me a copy?  I already ordered one from Waterston but I'm scared it won't make it in time.  I literally convinced my wife to push back our vacation so I could read this book and now it will release a day after I fly out of the country.

I still get pissed at myself for missing out on that one ebay sale where an ARC sold for 100.  The 300 ones were too much for me...

So, there it is in Chapter 1, "To save Mankind...". Also, debated was he went back to save Esme, which is true. Good clarification.

Whuch part is that quote from?

Only part i can see is "you... and all mankind"

Esme calls him a monster and he says he is the monster needed to save her and all of mankind.
To add to that Esme accused him of coming back just to save the Empire.  Kellhus points out that they're currently traveling away from the Empire but he still saved her.  The implication being that she and nothing else is the reason he went back.  He then states that she is his only Darkness which is about the sweetest thing a Dunyain can say about another.
