Title: Guess What I Just Found
Post by: Faster Master St. Pastor on April 17, 2007, 05:38:23 AM

Okay, so I'm sitting there reading articles online and talking to my friend on google talk, and he happens to mention books, and it gets me onto the subject. Out of curiosity I go and google Mistborn, and poke around for a bit. Lo and behold! I found a Canadian bookseller who is taking pre-orders not only for Well, which was strangely only for the mass market edition, but also for Hero (http://www.chapters.indigo.ca/books/item/books-978076531689/0765316897/Mistborn-The-Hero-Of-Ages?pticket=ilvovd45yusvc245ien2kjqoA%2bUVeNrdWFg5H60MO5U3REiNP%2fM%3d). I thought it was so strange and funny that I had to post it here, and so viola. What say you?

August 2008 is a long time from now. Ouch.

Oh, they've also got the Elantris hardback for 5 bucks. But it says the publisher is "Betelgeuse Books" which seems to be based in Toronto? Odd. Could this be remaindered?

No, that's Michael Keaton, Michael Keaton.... er...

Beetlejuice.

Betelgeuse is near where Ford Prefect is from.

Brandon could use that for Amiphigory! That was actually pretty funny!
