Update
Amazon in the USA is listing LEoF as usually ships in 24 hours as of this morning. Although when ordering it comes back with an expected ship date of March 7th... Back orders holding things up?

Typical Amazon. I sent them a customer service message inquiring about this confusion. I got back the following reply pretty quick:
quote:
Thank you for writing to us at Amazon.com.
I apologize for any misunderstanding regarding this item, and I sympathize with your frustration in this matter.
It appears that the current availability estimate listed on our web site may not yet reflect the most recent information provided to us by our suppliers.
Due to your continuing patience in this matter, I have taken the liberty of issuing you a $10.00 promotional gift certificate.You will find all of the details below. Simply print this certificate or save the message on your hard drive for future reference.
So when combined with another certificate I have, I'll be getting the tome for just over $7. But, when that will be is still anyone's guess. |

Go figure.

Good luck on figuring it out. I just saw that my status has changed to "shipping soon/preparing item(s) for shipment." Thus, if it ships out by Wednesday, I'll have it on Friday before the weekend.
SB who worries this Amazon experience is a harbinger of things to come when the Waterdeep tomes come out. |

Bummer the store that suppousedly had it in this friday is up over its ears in orders (well the sign depicts a dragon so) But I got word from an online vendor who could ship it to me today (Wednesday) which would mean I will get it either Thursday (whoo ho) or Friday (yay). Any later then that and I will honor the old samurai tradition of seppuko this being a to great loss to bear. |

It's out in the US. There's an auction on eBay for 8 copies, located in Utah. Take heart, US scribes! The book will soon be in our hands! |

Got it.
I noticed that the Dordrien section has another little tidbit that I'm going to expand upon, but in the more appropriate section of the library.

UPS states that mine is out for delivery today. I guess Amazon managed to smuggle some copies out of Utah. |

I have held the tome in these very hands not more than three hours ago. Then, I put it back on the shelf, as it was absolutely necessary for me to be elsewhere at that moment. I didn't get so much as a flip-through when I noticed the time. But, fear not, it's out! |

I just now bought my copy off the shelf at Walden Books here in Austin, TX. I am so happy to have it in my hands. Lots and lots of timelines. It will be days of reading before I know the full extent of the goodness inside. |

Mine was delivered from Amazon via UPS this afternoon. Plus, I also saw Viper's Kiss is available already via some online vendors. |

True, no more gaming products, but at least we have some novels until then. |

Everyone in the US should be able to pick up a copy by this weekend. I held a copy in my hands today. So much information and so little time. I'll have to browse it again tomorrow since I cannot pick up my copy yet. |

My FLGS in Pittsburgh is expecting their order to be delivered today, and they're holding a copy for me! Only a few more hours now and the wait is over. |

Well, I rolled to my FLGS at noon today. Kent had last week assured me that he'd have the book in by my lunch break... But he didn't! He said the book wouldn't get there until later this afternoon.
Luckily, the trip wasn't a total waste, as I had a couple other errands to run, and I still made it back with enough time to scarf my lunch and goof off for a few minutes online.
I called back just before time to leave work, and the book was in! Joy! When I got there, they even had a copy sitting aside for me.
Now I can finally dip into the lore that some of y'all have been teasing us with. |

Ed,
I'd be happy to send you whatever info you need. E-mail me offline and I'll try to answer any questions you have. I've been in Pittsburgh for 14 years now, so I know the lay of the land pretty well. |
