A Runes countdown?

I remember before FOTR came out in theatres, there was a big LOTR site that had a countdown until it arrived in theatres: I'm talking months, weeks, days, minutes, seconds. Everything. I don't think we need seconds :wink: but I know everyone here has been waiting for Runes for some length of time and when we get a definite publication date, I think it would be cool to have something like that. :) Just a thought.

Good call! Vain, can we do that at this site?

We would need more than one counter though, probably two, one for Europe, and one for the U.S.

Me being the kind of person who doesn't like to look for things, I will just ask. When exactly does it come out? Much wanting to know.

115 DAYS UNTIL RUNES OF THE EARTH.

Er...assuming that October 24th is still the magical day. Any updated info on that from Elohimfest, anyone?

I do hope we can get some kind of counter going. Vain? Vain?

Amazon.com (US) says October 14th. Haven't heard a better guess.

My mom pre-ordered it from amazon back in May. I think she really WANTS this book. She's got a little calendar on her desk and she's ticking off the days until October 14th. And on the 14th, she's got RUNES written in in big red letters. :lol:

Amazon-UK has more than one date on it. It has it listed as 14th October from Putnam Publishing Group, and 21st October from Gollancz...
