Hey Junkies! We’re still at SiglerFest2K14 in Vegas, but wanted to do a quick follow-up now that THE CHAMPION has been shipped and ebook links have been sent!
We get a few standard questions once we’ve shipped a GFL book:
- My book hasn’t shown up … have all the pre-orders been shipped?
All pre-orders have shipped, with the last batch going out this past Monday morning.It takes a maximum of ten business days to arrive to a US destination, but since we deliver them right to the central office, it often takes less. We sent books on Friday, Saturday and Monday, so *worst case* your book would arrive around October 20th if you’re in the continental US.
- How can I get my free ebook because I bought the hardcover?
You should have received an email with the download link on or about September 30th. If you have not, just email info@emptyset.com and we’ll sort you out! - My ebook won’t load onto my smart phone/tablet … what gives?
The ebook file you get is a zip file that contains the .mobi and the .epub versions of the book, so you have whatever format fits your preferred device. Zip files must be downloaded to your computer, unzipped, and then the right file (.mobi or .epub) loaded into your device software. As far as I know, tablets and smart phones can’t unzip files directly. - When is the audiobook going to be out?
Although we talk about it being “out soon” during this ‘cast, it’s actually out now! You can get it on iTunes, Audible or at Amazon! woo HOO!

Just finished the book – excellent! It’s going to be a tough wait for book VI but I’m sure it will be worth it.
Keep up the excellent work Mr Sigler!
i do not understand how i live 1 state away and i still haven’t gotten my book and people in other countries have gotten theirs. I’m glad for everyone i just wish i could get mine already
Cant wait to get my copy….
(In my best comic book guy/nerd voice)…
Actually, with a direct link, one can load an epub or pdf file directly into an iOS device, as long as it isn’t in a zip file. The directions below show how to do it from a website, I’ve never tried it from an email.
Directly on the iOS device (recommended)
Make sure the free iBooks app is on your iOS device.
Follow the link from Safari to reach the ePub document.
Select “Open in iBooks” on the iOS device.
The eBook will open and be added to your iBooks collection.
From now on, you can open the ePub document from the iBooks app on your iOS device.

Lame im in Oregon and i still havent got mine -.-
Drink suggestions? Guinness!
Lucky you guys, I’m in New Hampshire and haven’t received mine yet. I have the audiobook and the Ebook to hold me over at least so I’m a happy camper.
Just got mine this morning (in the UK) \o/
Number 156 – need to go and check if that’s my lowest yet. Will I ever get an elusive 2-digit copy?!?
Who’s the other Junkie here in Israel? Maybe both of us can meet with our books and have a drink for Scott.
I live in the UK and I got my book a few days ago. Was really pleased with how fast it was and the book looks awesome 🙂
