So, turns out the person who was supposed to mail most of the books just didn't bother to.

So, we should get our books pretty soon now...

Yeah that's a damn shame. I think GdM was going to use the profits to run GdM for the next year or two. After this, they might be in the red for the whole project, all because the person they trusted to mail their stuff simply didn't and then lied to them about it.

What did he think, that people wouldn't notice? Such a shame. I feel bad for the folks at GdM.

Apparently the guy has...problems...whatever that really means, I'm not sure (seems he was in bad financial state).  I guess he actually thought he could make off with some of the product?  No clue what the hell he thought he could do with it all though...sell it on eBay or something?

From what I can tell by a few comments, I don't think the project went into the red, but this surely means it won't be much in the black.

Is there some other reliable option to read the RSB story - and paying for it, of course?

Well, of course you can just buy it on Amazon.com.

Ok, thanks.
I will try Amazon again, though I am fucking tired of them (specially amazon.es).
As we say, "Señor, dame paciencia".

There is also Barnes and Noble, but it's more expensive and I don't even know if they have an international site.

Kindle version is available as well. If you're just looking to grab it just for Bakker's story you might want to go for that ($8 USD on amazon.com).

I see. I've just read for free the Prologue (by Bakker). Maybe I try the kindle version but I am a fucking addict of printed books so...

Oh me too. But its only a few pages, $20 or thereabouts is a lot to pay for a few pages of Bakker. Granted, I bought the signed limited edition version so you know which side of the fence I sit on ;)

That joke we had in another thread about them all sitting in a pile somewhere doesn't seem so funny anymore.

Yeah, not funny. Turns out reality is a bitch.

Well, it wasn't really a joke, especially since I said it as mine was part of the pile...

But all is well that ends well.  (Not really, but it's a book and so it's not really a big deal.)
