gobbledonk Posted September 26, 2012 Author Report Share Posted September 26, 2012 Happy to help, Red. Next time I'd get her 'Fifty Shades' and wait for the payoff ! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gobbledonk Posted September 28, 2012 Author Report Share Posted September 28, 2012 Just putting this here to remind myself to use the T360 clickthru to order 'The Twelve' tomorrow.

kamui Posted September 30, 2012 Report Share Posted September 30, 2012 Just putting this here to remind myself to use the T360 clickthru to order 'The Twelve' tomorrow. Absolutely cannot wait for the second instalment in the trilogy. I just finished the audiobooks version of the passage. After around 2/3 of the book I got bored and stopped listening to it for 2-3 months. I have picked it up recently again and can't wait for "the twelve", but the audiobook version isn't out yet.

gobbledonk Posted September 30, 2012 Author Report Share Posted September 30, 2012 My copy of The Twelve is scheduled for delivery sometime in late October, and KS can look forward to some enormous affiliate revenue kickback - bought a Sansa Clip+ to listen to music while I read my new book. Happy days. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Redbaron Posted September 30, 2012 Report Share Posted September 30, 2012 The GL finished the Passage the other night - absolutely loved it and will be picking up the twelve when released. She's anxious the third part (it's a trilogy right?) will be a way off though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gobbledonk Posted October 3, 2012 Author Report Share Posted October 3, 2012 The GL finished the Passage the other night - absolutely loved it and will be picking up the twelve when released. She's anxious the third part (it's a trilogy right?) will be a way off though. Not sure how far away the third one is, but 2 years between instalments isnt bad IMO. Cronin wrote the story which formed the genesis for The Passage after his 8-year old daughter challenged him to write a story about 'a girl who saves the world'. He claims the plot elements came together quickly - I expect that there are thousands of writers out there gnashing their teeth at that revelation - and he soon realised that what he had was too good to be 'just another short story'. Happy to read that he has resurrected a character from 'The Passage' for 'The Twelve' - I have always thought that if I had to go out in an apocalypse, be it zombies/vampires/Mormons, I would want to be the guy in the skyscraper with s high-powered rifle and thousands of rounds. Come get some. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
