FACT1:  I'm going to buy "Contagious" on the 30th.

FACT2:  I love the podcast format.  I get my weekly fix while I'm driving to and from work (a 60 minute commute)

FACT3:  "Contagious" the podcast will still be going after the book comes out.

PROBLEM1:  If I read the book, it'll spoil the podcast.  I didn't listen to the INFECTED re-podcast because I read the book so I knew what happened and what changed.

PROBLEM2:  If I wait for the podcast to be over, I'll have to avoid the forums and such...not to mention having to sit there and stare at the book, knowing the answers are all there.

Damn it.  Scott, your marketing genius hurts sometimes.

Turned us all into damned dirty junkies, and he's loving it!!!

We are loving it too though so it works like parasitic symbiosis.

 I listen even after I've read because the FDO's voice just adds so much more depth to the story than just reading the words on the page. I guess I'm a double junkie, if that's possible.

It's the unknown we fear when we look upon death and darkness, nothing more.

Read the book, smoke crack, forget what you read.

Hang out in the forums, smoke crack, forget what you read.

Listen to the podcast to remind yourself about what you forgot when you were smoking crack.

See - you can have it all!!!!

Can I substitute "smoke crack" for "drink heavily"? :)

Seriously though, after listening to Episode 4, there's absolutely NO WAY I'm not reading that book tomorrow :)  Scott did a fantastic job of setting up the perfect teaser.  That's all I can say without spoilery goodness.

I knew Dan would come up with a solution!

So tomorrow do you start at the beginning or do you start reading where episode 4 left off?

Sigler you Rat Bastard. See you in Denver.

... the day I saw contagious in my Itunes i started to uncontrollably shake. I had decided 

to hold off and wait until Dec. 30 to READ it.

it didn't work.

I am ADDICTED.

That is why scott sigler is a BASTARD. 

I'm just waiting for the FDO to inscribe my copy so mine can be shipped out!!!!!

We all fear that which we cannot see!!!

I was a bit peved at the post and almost said something rude. You responded in a much calmer, yet direct, manner.

real hard!!!!  Look at that cute little face!!!!!!
