I just ordered my copy of Fell, which will arrive at my house sometime this week. So, I made this thread to talk about the book. Post your thoughts, review, favorite part, least favorite part, anything in general that has to do with Fell. WARNING! If you're going to write a spoiler please make it so that you warn us before hand in your post, and you cover it with a color font that forces us to highlight it if we want to read it. I myself will give a review of the book when I finish reading it, hopefully I will be done with the book by next week.
Fenris Edit: If you are going to post a spoiler, make a note that it is a spoiler before the spoiler. and put the spoiler in the same font colour as the background. the colour code is 003300, so that anyone who wants to read the spoiler has to highlight it to do so. oh! Fen thinks you're all idiots. =P

How about we just write the spoilers in normal font and not do anything special so that people can just find out what happens and not have to endure another badly-done DCD book? -cynical look- Honestly, I'm not really expecting much. It's rare that sequels are worth reading. Fell was my favourite character besides the poppy field wolves, though, so perhaps I'll be bold and sit in the bookstore and read it or something. Not gonna waste moneys.

*Thwacks Wolfbane* Don't be so optimistic.
I'm anticipating the book, but not more than I am the new Streetlight cd >_> I am eager tofind out what happens to Fell though,and no doubt I'll be posting my opinions here. :P

I'll give it a chance only for the fact that it might be one of the rare few sequels worth reading...that and I want to see if any of the original characters asides Skarth show up (I hope DCD kill's that backstabbing buzzard)

My copy managed to arrive today and I'm on chapter four at the moment. It looks really good so far - though not as much Fell as I had been expecting. At the moment some of the other key characters (most of which are human) are being introduced, so hopefully it's just the build-up.
I don't really think I have to put an alert on that since it's not a spoiler.
I doubt it will be as good as TS, but it could just surprise me...

I've been having issues with the release date here in the US.. I preordered my copy months ago and was supposed to get it from Amazon at the beginning of September. They sent me an email saying the new ship date could be in November.. What the crap is that about??? All the bookstores tell me that they have no clue when to expext it.. whatever the online says.... 4-6 week shipment dates?

It's funny you mention that. I just came back from Barns & Nobles, I had ordered Fell to be shipped to my house and they said it would take 5 business days. I ordered the book last Sunday and checked on it today just too see the status. They told me that their was a shipping problem and that i wouldn't get the book until October. O.O LAME!!!!!!!!!!!
Anyhow, so I won't be able to get the book until then. However, they did say that the book was scheduled to be sold on September 28 so I'll be going back on that day to see if I can just buy my copy right then and there. And once i get the copy I ordered to be shipped to me, I would just return it and get a refund. No sense in having two copies of the same book.
*sighs*

That's really odd actually. First off, they only seem to have the paperback for order on amazon.co.uk, not the hardback, and then you can't even get it yet in America. That's just a little screwed if you ask me...
But the book's worth the hassle. Or it is to me at least.

Well I ordered two copies of the hardback on the American Amazon.com... just waiting for them to ship.. was going to just buy it in the store if I could find it but no such luck.
Krystal, if you get it in the store and they haven't shipped it yet you can just cancel the shipment and it would make the whole refund process a lot less troublesome and quicker.

At long last, Fell arrived at my door step today ^_^ So I'll be reading it for the next few days and I'll have a review of the book up when I'm finished. I personally have high expectations for the book and I hope DCD stayed true too the story.

I'm at the start of chapter six now. Lots is going on in my life that is slowing down my reading efforts, but I'm trying to go through as much as I can every chance I get. Glad you're gonna get the book Shako = ) We must give our opinions when we finish reading!

Got my copy this past weekend. *dances*. I'm on chapter twelve as of now. I like it so far, but not as much as I adore the original "SIght".
Will write a decent review once I finish. *goes back to reading*

I finished my copy awhile ago. I think he did a great job with it! Just as good as the Sight, if not better.
