I just didn't expect that from this market, or at least with the volume of the past two weeks. I figured one or two might trickle in every quarter, but that most of the comments and discussion would be over after the first 60-90 days. I do know some people whose reading list is backlogged and haven't got to Maiden yet, though. Of course. I just didn’t expect that from this market, or at least with the volume of the past two weeks.

Most of us don't rush out to read a book as soon as it's released. I went out to read Maiden mostly cause I (kind of) know you. The only books I read as soon as they're released are continuing books in series (Martin, Jordan, Rowlings, etc). Well, I read HP5 a year after release, but HP 6 within a week of release. So don't be surprised to have people post next summer about having just read MoP. That's what you want, right? The continuing royalty check every year from readers discovering your book. ;) I wouldn’t be surprised, Kameron. Most of us don’t rush out to read a book as soon as it’s released.
