Right. Now how to put this. I like your rewrites. Ancestor was good before and effing wicked after. But Nocturnal. Please. It is a great story. Really. In fact so good as soon as I heard you were planning a rewrite I went straight to get the downloads so I could keep for old times sake, and I would really like to listen to re original before reading the new version. I like to squeeze every ounce of sigler storyness (predictive text changed that to stiffness, glad I noticed). But now see I can't listen to it again. Maybe ever. I've spent hours on the web trying to find a copy of the book for less than $200, or a torrent that someone has kept up with the old podcasts in it, or anything. I would pay $200 too if j didn't have nappies, baby food and whiskey to buy. I am one of those junkies that is on his second (or even third reading for contagious) reading/listening of all your stories now. And I was saving nocturnal for last as it is my favourite. I can't believe youve done this to me Scott. Why? I know the new one will be kick ass, but thats not the point. The old one was great. And what exactly is wrong with publishing a 1300 page novel. Shogun and War and Peace are just two examples of books that are massive and so immersive. Imagine if Tolstoy had been told he had a word limit. I am not sure where I am going with this. Or what my point is. I think basically I am pissed I can't listen to Nocturnal as I am going to sleep now. Do I have to deal with or us our FDO gonna give his junkies a little summik summik. Just like put he link back up in podiobooks for a day or two. For me Scott, for us. For your junkies.
