Fandemonium delayed?

[Elite Anubis Guard]

They haven't updated the site. New books supposed to be out today.

[Ben]

they seem to always have delays, i have come to expect delays on all books from them.

[Elite Anubis Guard]

Can't be too critical though. They must have a fair bit on their platees.

[Elite Anubis Guard]

They still haven't updated. I hate suspense.

[Mousie]

On the website it has now been officially delayed until: Due 7 February 2006

[Elite Anubis Guard]

Ah..dam.

[sueKay]

It's not just releases that have been delayed...I put in an order with my Local Forbidden Planet, to keep a copy of 'Rising' for me...I've still not got it, and according to the shop staff, there's been problems with all of the orders for fandemonium's books...

[Elite Anubis Guard]

I'll say it yet again..."ah...dam".

I guess they're understaffed. We know how much pressure the SG1 series was for them, but now they've taken on the Atlantis license, maybe it's just too much for them now.

[Skydiver]

It's not just releases that have been delayed...I put in an order with my Local Forbidden Planet, to keep a copy of 'Rising' for me...I've still not got it, and according to the shop staff, there's been problems with all of the orders for fandemonium's books...

i know someone who ordered it directly from fandy and got it in a timely manner.

but yeah, they need more staff. they have a decent product but will lose folks if they can't keep up teh time table

[sueKay]

Yeah...lets just say that I was in five bookstores looking for the book and never found it...and some of the staff were none too kind when talking about the company...and that's a pity because the quality of the books is fantastic.

[Elite Anubis Guard]

Well I'm sure there might be a couple of unemployed SG fans in London who would happy to help ouit.

[Skydiver]

yeah. that is a shame. i remember the ROC books by ashley mcconnell, they sucked to be blunt. the author may have been able to write other fandoms, but she did not have a handle on the sg one.

fandy has a good feel for the fandom, they just need some organization.

[sueKay]

I'm willing to bet there's lots of SG fans that volunteer to get the books printed and delivered.

I've read A Matter of Honour, The Cost of Honour and Trial By Fire. I'm currently reading Sacrifice Moon, and I also own City of the Gods.

But every where I go...I finding fewer and fewer copies of the books.

[Elite Anubis Guard]

I thought that The Price You Pay was good. I'm re-reading it now actually. Ye, I really like Fandy, they're excellent. The authors are great, books are (apart from just the one) but they're pretty overwhelmed.
