Six More Weeks!
HOLY MOTHER OF ALL THAT IS HOLY, THE WAITING IS SHEER TORTURE!
I was at a bookstore today, and the lady behind the counter had an ARC of Rant sitting just right there. She'd just started reading it, and we talked for a bit. I flipped through it, and was excited to find...
[I]It looks absolutely nothing like any of Chuck's previous books.[/I]
And it was all I could do, not to grab it and just tear ass out of the store, forever.
Which is why I can post this here, and not from prison. Where I'm sure I'd have ended up (again).
Let the countdown begin! Starting tomorrow, there are [SIZE=7]42[/SIZE] more days until Rant is released!
so Chuck came out and saw his shadow and we got six more weeks till Rant comes out
No, not cover-wise. That's not what I meant at ALL .
I just meant... the way the story is presented. Entirely different. I want to say more, but I won't.
I am really, really, really excited about it, though. Looks incredible.
[QUOTE=the midas touch;940347]When you say it looks absolutely nothing like any of Chuck's previous books, what do you mean?
Cover-wise? Didn't we know that a few months back when the cover was released...[/QUOTE]
you get to see the book? and im stuck here in the third world with no means to even get close to it?!?!?!!?? I envy you folks.
I don`t care I get to see the...eh... new... eh... fuck there`s no way... Im running to the bookstore and demanding the chuck book here the may 1rst.
(by the way may 1srt is Worker`s day..so All bookstores are close)
That's cool, Will. Don't tell us, I know you won't. It will be a good surprise.

Right on, LeHaHi. Right on .
I'll tell you, though : I honestly think I'm more stoked for this one than I have been for any Chuck book since maybe [I]Choke[/I].
And that's [I]including[/I] Diary!

Man I am so stoked. I loved Diary.
Will you should have grabbed it and hauled ass. Thats probably what I would have done. But hey, if you're optimistic you would have some reading material while you were servin time.

I happened to [I]procure[/I] an ARC....it's next on the list, and looks incredibly interesting. You're right Will, unique from the way he has told his stories before. Don't worry, I won't spoil.
Do not speak- unless it improves on silence.
"Unique" like Danielewski's [url=http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Image:HouseOfLeavesPage134.gif]way of telling stories[/url], or "unique" like a different narrative voice?
You're not talking about the radio station weather report type of story-telling are you?
I'm just hoping all the different people he uses to tell casey's story aren't all in the same exact voice like Haunted was

Oh, that info is already public knowledge as far as I know, so I thought, with how secretive and non-spoily you guys were being, that you meant something in addition to that. Nevermind

Not so much, no.
Is the release date for you guys the same as what it is for us over here?
Nah, just found out, 10th over here.
Because now I'm counting [SIZE=7]44 more days[/SIZE] until [I]Rant[/I].
