Baine Posted January 27, 2016 Report Share Posted January 27, 2016 It turns out my family didn't preorder Bands of Mourning like we do with all of his other books, so now I have to wait DAYS to find out what's going on! *sob* Misery loves company, so if you want to, we can wallow in misery together!

Kipper Posted January 27, 2016 Report Share Posted January 27, 2016 Waiting for Bands of Mourning...would be extremely painful... you understand that I have to do this... 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kestrel Posted January 27, 2016 Report Share Posted January 27, 2016 Yep Because Amazon doesn't let you pre-order with gift cards. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Seerow Posted January 28, 2016 Report Share Posted January 28, 2016 I preordered a signed copy that still hasn't shown up. Luckily, I also preordered the ebook version, so got to read that right away. Still wondering why my preorder is running so late though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kestrel Posted January 28, 2016 Report Share Posted January 28, 2016 Really? In my experience its always told me "no, you cannot do that!" Maybe its only with kindle books. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kipper Posted January 28, 2016 Report Share Posted January 28, 2016 Nobody continued the baneposting... It's okay, I'm fine. Do you hear me? I DON'T CARE. Anyway, yeah, I feel you guys. My Amazon account unfortunately will not sync any books to my Kindle, which genuinely sucks. It's there! But I can't read it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Invested Beard Posted January 28, 2016 Report Share Posted January 28, 2016 Yeah I bought the Kindle version. Perhaps the physical copy you can't do that. Not really sure why they would have that rule. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kestrel Posted January 28, 2016 Report Share Posted January 28, 2016 No, like, they didn't let me do it with the Kindle copy of the book. I'm not quite sure what the problem was. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Sovereign Posted January 28, 2016 Report Share Posted January 28, 2016 I finally got a notification from Dragonsteel that my BoM copy will arrive... on Wednesday the 3rd (I got the initial shipping info a week before the release and then nothing until today....) X_X , Luckily for me, I got very impatient yesterday, bought the ebook and read the whole thing. Now I'm like 30% through Secret History. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Baine Posted January 28, 2016 Author Report Share Posted January 28, 2016 So, for anyone who's finished Bands of Mourning, how's the Sanderson Avalanche? Is it like（◎0◎) or more like (ʘᗩʘ)? No spoilers please. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hope Posted January 28, 2016 Report Share Posted January 28, 2016 (edited) I preordered Bands with Calamity, and decided to have it ship in one shipment because I'm a cheapskate. Of course this means I have to wait like a month for it to arrive. (conveniently giving me time to reread the original trilogy and the first two Reckoners books) Edited January 28, 2016 by Hope 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

natc Posted January 28, 2016 Report Share Posted January 28, 2016 The avalanche this time was impressive in expanding possibilities for the cosmere. Well, it always had those possibilities of course, but we didn't know them At the very least you will walk away stunned by what has transpired because some of it is pretty . . . unexpected. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Baine Posted January 30, 2016 Author Report Share Posted January 30, 2016 Okay, I can't take it anymore. I need more information! What page/chapter of Secret History are the Bands of mourning Spoilers? I'd like to read up to there if I can. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What page/chapter of Secret History are the Bands of mourning Spoilers? I'd like to read up to there if I can. Literally every page. There's a reason Brandon didn't want people to find out about it until after they had finished with Bands. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Invested Beard Posted January 30, 2016 Report Share Posted January 30, 2016 Yeah trust me, I know it's killing you now, but if you spoil it for yourself you'll regret it longer. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
