Do you have an eta on the physical book being on Amazon?

I really want to get it but if it's going to be up soon, I'd rather wait so I can use my Amazon Prime for free shipping.

I'm placing my order as we speak, but just one quick question that I don't see answered anywhere in the order forum. Should I be expecting a paperback or hardcover? I'm fine with either, but I'm curious and I don't want to wait until it comes to find out because I'll probably go advertising this book to my friends and I'm sure they'll want to know. Thanks.

Amazon is severely slacking here. I guess I blame the holidays, I'm not sure. I'd be very surprised if it wasn't up in the next couple of days - I'm going to make some calls tomorrow to see where exactly they're at in the process.

If I were you, I'd wait for the Amazon book to arrive so that you can get free (and faster) shipping. No need for you to spend extra money for no reason.

It's a 225 pg paperback, 8''x10''.

Hi, I'm the guy who wrote the Nate MSL Power outage section (hackleman...Hacklebeast...I thought it was clever in 7th grade.)

I cannot express how happy I am that people enjoyed my part. I am by no means an "outgoing person," and my hand was literally trembling as I went to hit the send button. When editing it, I spent five minutes editing, then five minutes pasing; thinking that this is a bad idea (and I'm sorry about the grammar errors, I caught hepes of them, but knew I would enevitably miss some). It's special knowing that people who I never have met, and never will meet, like what I worked on. Thanks for the shout out, it means a lot.

I would talk about how great the rest of the book is, but I haven’t seen it yet, my copy is (hopefully) in the mail. I'm going to wait a few weeks and talk about how awesome it is then rather than talk about how awesome I think it will be.

:D It is in the mail! The shipping on the early copies (I ordered yours 5 days ago) is slow but should be arriving later this week or, at the very worst, early next week.

Congrats on having an awesome section. Everyone agrees, it's really fantastic.
