Excellent! Just bought the dead tree version using Amazon Prime. Should be in my grubby little paws by Thu.

Got the eARC copy a couple weeks ago, and I'm getting some dead-tree copies to hand around. Yes, it is too cool to be believed! All the stuff we like about Larry's books (guns, and stuff blows up about every 40 pages or so) X 2.
Buy it.

Reading the copy I got through Webscription now.
Query, do all of the stores on the list count for the NY Times list, or only Amazon?
I know the e-book doesn't (fraking NYFC neolithic Luddites)

I would ask you, if you can, do it this week.
Sales in the release week count about ten times as much as sales in the next month, which count about ten times as much as all other sales.
So buying one book today, is almost as good for the sales numbers, as buying 100 books next month.
Thursday night here Chris (Thursday AM your time). I'm working nights till then and the way the Navy runs their network I can't plug my kindle into a workstation. Thursday is my first night off. I already sent myself an e-mail reminder just to be sure.

Yep. Read it. 200 proof, triple distilled win. If you don't have it, you are wrong.

When I read MHI, I wondered more than once if Owen Zastava Pitt wasn't modeled after a certain um, moderator of a forum we all know.

Dang, not out as an audiobook.
Will try to pick one up on Friday.
Are books that are sold on Audible counted towards the ratings?

Bought the e-book from Baen last week, about halfway through it now. Chris's character has appeared, but I haven't gotten to the redshirt scene yet.
