While it may be frustrating, IMHO Runes did not end as weak a whimper!

I hear and agree Variol. When I received my email saying it would be delayed two weeks I responded with the same info you mention about their site saying they have it in stock and will ship in 24 hours.

I am awaiting their response.

BTW do you have a copy yet?

Just finished DT7 - King's best book in a long time

Just finished The Rising by Brian Keene - intelligent zombies - human & animal - a brilliant step in the evolution of zombie stories
