Poll: Whose buying Yahtzee's new Book?

[Junkle]

I'll see the reviews it gets. If it sounds interesting, I'll check it out. Otherwise, probably not worth it.

 

[HitsWithStyxx]

Nothing ventured; nothing gained, eh?

I shall preorder it, purely due to the comparisons to Terry Pratchett and Douglas Adams, two of my favourite fantasy-fiction authors.

 

[Yopaz]

I wont pre-order it, partially because I doubt I will find any Norwegian bookstores where I actually can pre-order it, and pre-ordering it from a different country would mean waiting a few weeks before I got it so the whole point of pre-ordering it would be gone. I will buy it, no doubt about that, but I am not the kind of guy to pre-order a book... Still I might just pre-order Towers of Midnight...

 

[BluenetteDiviner]

As soon as I scrounge up the money I shall be buying the book

 

[Les Awesome]

I would if it ever comes to Ireland plz come to Ireland

 

[Cabamacadaf]

I'll probably buy it some time. Won't be pre-ordering it though.

 

[Cowabungaa]

I'll wait for a review, but the story sounds pretty interesting.

 

[Assassin Xaero]

Probably not. Don't really read much as it is, and if I find the will/time to, I still have The Zombie Survival Guide, World War Z, Salem's Lot, Desperation, and another book or two to get through...

Seriously, don't read Desperation. I would actually sooner re-watch Mick Garris's version of The Shining than read Desperation. Ooh, I'd also rather re-watch just the stupid, hackneyed Jack Nicholson goes crazy scenes in the original film of The Shining-- that is the film with all the good parts taken out-- than read Desperation.

WWZ is good, but it gets too bound up in "The military is the only thing that will ever save us in the event of a zombie attack, and only the Americans will do it with a great deal of success", which is a little too right-wing for my tastes. The Zombie Survival Guide is a little less militaristic, and is good in total, but advocates that it's okay to light zombies on fire, which is a no-no. Because then all you have is a flaming zombie STILL COMING TOWARDS YOU.

'Salem's Lot is really, really good. Stephen King in his early days was able to do Gothic novels set in modern day and he was able to do it better than most, if not all.

So: TL;DR and in order: Good but not completely, Good but right-wing, Absolutely fantastic, and utter trash not worth the energy it'd take to pick up.

And finally, yeah, I'm buying Yahtzee's book but not yet. Maybe after I move.

Alright, thanks for that! Guess I'll go back to Salem's Lot if I can find the time to read.

Of course, I mean, it's not too expansive, it's written by someone who always makes me laugh every Wednesday and it's a topic that has never been in books.

 

[Orcus The Ultimate]

Yes I shall, I might cancel if he will be doing a UK signing.

very good answer buddy !

 

[LeGrotesque]

Maybe, but not in any forseeable future.

I've just managed to regain the will to read, but I seem unable to bring myself to read anything other than horror, so buying it now would be kinda retarded.

Looks like we're in the same boat, amigo.

 

[SoranMBane]

Well, I'm not pre-ordering it, but I will be off to the nearest book store to buy it when it comes out.

 

[mayney93]

if i can get it in the UK then yeah i'll give it a read

 

[person427]

Will it be available in stores or only online? If it's in stores, I'll just wait. If it's only online I'll probably preorder it.

 

[oppp7]

Where's the "I'm buying it but not preordering" option? I just hit yes.
...Ya, buying it but not preordering it.

 

[Pyotr Romanov]

I had no idea what it's about. Now that I do, I say it's awesome and I might buy it.

 

[elilupe]

Im definately gonna get it. I already preordered it on Amazon

 

[EightGaugeHippo]

its only £5 so yeah, might aswell.
