$1.99? Good Deal!
Fore once Amazon.ca follows suit.
Frickin’ brilliant book.
Not to be missed.
I’m surprised his next, Agency, is in the same world, because after Peripheral he’d said he didn’t want to go back to that well, it would cheapen it.
I am pleased to discover my local library has the audiobook version of Peripheral available on Overdrive!
He’s never going to actually release Agency is he.
I suspect its mostly in the can by now (hence promotional tricks like this)
But the next book…
It was “mostly in the can” according to him when something made him do a total rewrite causing the first release delay. Given the course of recent events, something in the world is going to announce a Hold My Beer and he’ll be on his third delay real soon now.
I saw books 2 and 3 in the Blue Ant series in the suggested reads. I’m assuming, since I liked Pattern Recognition, that I’ll like the other two. Opinions?
The books get better as you progress through the series. Zero History is wonderful. Highly recommended.
