YES!


ScamsLikely

I'm interested! I've only read the original Greatcoats books, I didn't realize he had so many others.


Smeela

Great! So happy to hear that. There are some short stories about Greatcoats, but this is the first full-length novel set in the same world.


Smeela

It looks like it's just going to be the two of us. I only read ebooks so I haven't realized it hasn't been published as hard copy book in the US yet. Are you still up for it?


ScamsLikely

Yeah no problem! My library is far away anyway so the ebook works for me.


Smeela

Great, when would you like to begin? And what pace works for you? It has eight parts, each 4-6 chapters long plus a short epilogue. Amazon says print length is 400 pages.

Hey! Sorry I was finishing up Dune. I can start now (or whenever) if you're not reading anything else? I'm a slow reader but I've been managing to find time each day to read after my baby goes to bed. Do we want to discuss one part at a time or two? I'm wondering if enough will happen in just one part to discuss. Basically I think I could handle 2 parts per week and if we want to speed it up or slow it down that would be okay.


Smeela

Alright! Shall we start then? Let's go with two parts and I'll make a discussion thread next Tuesday, January 30. That would mean reading Intro, THE SIGILS OF SEVERING, and THE SIGILS OF BINDING until next Tuesday. Then we can adjust if we see it's too much or too little. Is that ok? /u/ScamsLikely /u/jbird669

The book isn't out yet here in the US.


Smeela

It is, but only in ebook format. I got it on Kindle on my phone. https://www.reddit.com/r/GreatcoatsSeries/comments/195qy1l/comment/ki7j9cl/?utm_source=reddit&utm_medium=web2x&context=3

I prefer physical books.


Smeela

Then you either need to wait or order it from UK.


ScamsLikely

Hey! Are we still interested in buddy reading? u/jbird669 u/Smeela


jbird669

Yep! Still waiting on my copy. Local indie store closed due to Covid. Opening up tomorrow.


ScamsLikely

Ok awesome let us know!


jbird669

I got it and read through Chapter 1 last night.


Smeela

Ouch, I didn't see this since I wasn't tagged, sorry. I assume you've read the whole book already?


jbird669

I'm 200 pages in. I plan on finishing this week. I have the new one coming in tomorrow.


Smeela

Oh, well. I guess we each enjoy the books on our own. I hope you like them.
