That's my biggest problem with preordering and the fact that there are no stores around I can preorder and pick-up from easily, the delivery waiting time. I either have to wait the 15 day delivery (can you believe it, 15 days within Australia...overseas shipping doesn't even take that long sometimes) or buy the book at a cheap price, but pay an extra $10 for shipping...it's a bit ridiculous

I got lucky with the SB and LS got them both delivered on release day .
LS showed up at 8 in the morning so I found it hard having to go to work and not being able start reading
until I got home
Got a test on the 25th so I'll have to wait a bit before I can start on Bloodlines.

Hey guys, Penguin has released a sneak peek of the US book trailer for BLOODLINES as well as the first 4 chapters of the book here (how cool is it that Sydney from the book cover is in the trailer?!):

The trailer is pretty damn awesome. I haven't read the 4 chapters though, I was excited about the first chapter, but I want the whole book now...not just teaser chapters. It sucks enough reading one chapter and thinking "crap, don't have any more" but to do the same thing after 4 chapters? that'd kill me.

Haha yeah though now I do feel more excited about the book coming out since I know how good it is so far. For a while there I was scared I wouldn't care. This is good.

Also, yeah the trailer looks badass. Although they kinda failed with their Adrian... oh well. Can't expect them to get it right all the time. Though I'm glad to finally see the US putting in some effort for once.

Sydney's tattoo in the trailer looks AWESOME.

I agree with dimkaluv it's nice seeing the US finally stepping up.
And the four chapters were can't wait tillmit comes out!

Last Eddie quote AND, it's unfinished! Penguin Australia knows how to drive you mental.

'Eddie appeared in the doorway, a silver stake in hand. Eddie charged in and simply went for...'


WHO DOES HE GO FOR?

That trailer was great. Way better quality than the other ones that have come out.
Only 5 days to go!!!! Time flys.

Whoa... is it me or does the Adrian in the US trailer look like the Adrian on the cover? It's hard to tell, but I kinda think it might actually be him... just that they photoshopped him to be paler with blue eyes on the cover. They've got cover-Sydney in the trailer... could have easily had cover-Adrian be in it as well. Or have I gone completely blind? What do you guys think?

I think he was the same Adrian too. Why bother using the cover Sydney but not the cover Adrian?
