Geddy's Soul Patch Posted June 17, 2015 Share Posted June 17, 2015 Everyone must be very excited for the sequel to the most mediocre teen novel of all time, written by a mediocre Star Wars/Dune author and a drummer! 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EagleMoon Posted June 17, 2015 Share Posted June 17, 2015 Everyone must be very excited for the sequel to the most mediocre teen novel of all time, written by a mediocre Star Wars/Dune author and a drummer! It always amazes me when someone has read it and says they loved it. I have to think that they either never read anything more complicated than a comic book or are 12 years old. Maybe both. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Anthemic Posted June 17, 2015 Share Posted June 17, 2015 just what I wanted, a sequel to one of the worst books i've ever read! 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
robertrobyn Posted June 17, 2015 Author Share Posted June 17, 2015 (edited) just what I wanted, a sequel to one of the worst books i've ever read! That's what's nice about this book it is not written by KJA it is written by a lot of authors.I met KJA at RushCon14 and he was a great guy. I met him in the elevator at the hotel after they said he had a big announcement to make. The announcement was about Clockwork Lives. I offered him $1000.00 to spill the beans and he wouldn't bite. His other books are pretty good. Edited June 17, 2015 by robertrobyn 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stone and a hard place Posted June 17, 2015 Share Posted June 17, 2015 Everyone must be very excited for the sequel to the most mediocre teen novel of all time, written by a mediocre Star Wars/Dune author and a drummer! It always amazes me when someone has read it and says they loved it. I have to think that they either never read anything more complicated than a comic book or are 12 years old. Maybe both. I am a voracious reader, anything and everything, from teen novels to classics. while not the best book ever, and most certainly written for a young audience, and some of the rush references I found a little tedious and stretched--I enjoyed the book. It filled 5 hours on the commute to and from work--and I have certainly read worse. FYI, some of my favorite stories have been graffic novels/comics and written for 12 year olds. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ytserush Posted June 17, 2015 Share Posted June 17, 2015 Not getting it. Â I still haven't read the first one yet (don't plan to either.) althoughI have it in various formats Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HalfwayToGone Posted June 19, 2015 Share Posted June 19, 2015 Just curious--was the only news about this that someone saw it on the store website, or was there any sort of anything about it elsewhere? I know the mailing list usually goes out just before these things are put online, but I saw nothing about this until I was browsing on ebay and saw two people already marking these up to $175 and $199. Went to the online store and sure enough, there it is, and not even sold out yet for less than half what these bozos are asking for it.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Buy everything on the website and try to sell it for double and triple the price. It must work enough for people to keep doing it I guess. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HalfwayToGone Posted June 20, 2015 Share Posted June 20, 2015 (edited) Oh I totally get that. What I was wondering was whether there was any advance info about this being put out in a signed edition on the rush webstore (or the publisher site), since I didn't see any email about it from the rush mailing list. I'm guessing they are now just springing these things on the consumers who actually visit the store rather than publicizing it, so less of these eBay guys corner the market and more actual rush fans grab them, but I could just be out of the loop somehow. Fwiw, they still aren't sold out yet. Edited June 20, 2015 by HalfwayToGone Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

softfilter Posted June 20, 2015 Share Posted June 20, 2015 Hopefully it's better written than the first one, but I wouldn't hold my breath. It was a embarrassing scholastic book club 7th grade level reading assignment.... But the illustrations in the book, wonderful! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
robertrobyn Posted June 21, 2015 Author Share Posted June 21, 2015 if I'm correct only one short story it was written by Kevin Anderson the rest is written by other authors so it should be pretty interesting Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
