Sparkrunner Posted June 15 Report Share Posted June 15 I'm a huge fan of the BYU TV produced tv show Extinct which ran one season in 2017. Casting, plot, sets, vfx are amazing. It was co-written by Orson Scott Card, my only complaint is it's left on a cliffhanger... recently noticed THIS: https://www.amazon.com/Extinct-Orson-Scott-Card/dp/0765393778 Amazon hints at a release date April 1, 2035... Any thoughts? Is it an April Fools prank? Is he writing the story behind the series? Do you think we might finally get a resolution? Is the date standard practice for Amazon pre-purchases? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Quantus Posted June 16 Report Share Posted June 16 (edited) No clue, but Goodreads implies there was an e-book release in 2020, maybe that's why it has such a specific page count for being over a decade away: https://www.goodreads.com/work/editions/61659548-extinct Edited June 16 by Quantus 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't know about standard dates, but Amazon has been known to make up dates before for titles when it lacked actual data. Example (a portion of my email and the author response): Spoiler Quote 27 Jul 2022 Can you share any updates for Curse of Krakens? Some sources (Amazon) say it is due out Aug 2022, and some (Goodreads) say Jun 2023; but Del Rey's site has no information and I can't confirm which (if either) is correct. Quote 27 Jul 2022 Neither date is correct because I haven’t finished writing it. It's finished now and does have a legit release date - 4 Nov 23. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
