Some of you may have heard that a copy or two of LSODM have been sold, despite the embargo. This is, unfortunately, true.
Eight copies were mistakenly sent out ahead of schedule, to the big Forbidden Planet store in London. All eight were immediately sold. No one at Forbidden Planet is to blame, and no one who bought a copy is to blame.
I will only ask those who DID buy a copy to keep it to themselves. I'm asking them not to post spoilers and not to even HINT at anything that happens. I'm pretty confident nothing will leak, because you guys are all really good about this sort of thing, but I need to make sure.
And also, for those eight people out there who now own a copy... I hope you enjoy it.

Aaah, I've never been first yet!!! :D
YAY!
DEREK!! Will you come to the Frankfurt Book Fair???????
PLEEEEAAAAASEEEEE
FRANKFUUUURT BOOOOOOK FAAAAAAIIIIIIIR!!!!!!
GOOD MORNING DEREK
*tacklehugs Derek before he can run and hide*
#ChaseForBook9
hey Derek! will you ever be coming to Singapore? you do stop over here on the way to Aus/ NZ, so whu not spend a day or 2 in Singapore!!
Haha, someone messaged a spoiler to Becky on Tumblr.
#ChaseForBook9
DON'T ACT LIKE YOU CAN'T SEE US!!!!
WE KNOW YOU ARE HERE!!!!
SO TALK TO US!!!!
TALK TO YOUR STALKERS!!!!!
And I was just about to get angry at you Derek...
I want my copy of LSODM now!!
I really need it! But I also don't want it because I'm scared of what is going to happen. DAMN MIXED FEELINGS lol
*smiles*
I like that you're being a pretty good sport about this...
To those eight people, at least.
Still eight copies is not so bad as I expected. That's good, I guess. :)
#ChaseForBook9
Heyyyy
Get your godlike self on. Before I use my power on you and wr wouldnt want that would we, Derek? Zaf gave me her iPod to scare you
Derek!! I promise not to yell at you for not coming to Aus!!
At least they were only 8 copiies. That can't POSSIBLY hurt the No. 1 Bestseller rating coming to LSODM (obviously).
@Ieni: D: That's so cruel..! :P
*mutters*
I can't believe eight humans have LSoDM, when I don't even have KotW yet...
#ChaseForBook9
I haven't been here in AGES
I just feel bad for people who want it. Zafira is practically growling as I speak so I am not giving her the iPod until she stops growling. Probably plans to explode Forbidden Planet.
CAS! *hugs* Hi lol.
Wait- Becky got a spoiler? 0.0
Woooooooooooow
*Grins* So... Derek... How about a hug? *Hides bomb behind back*
Zaf- So that means right people know who dies first :3
ADRA *returns hug* hehe
Becky's spoiler could have been a lie, couldn't it? ^^
DEREK PLEASE BECAUSE IT'S HARD TO WORSHIP WHEN YOU HARDLY EVEN VISIT. :P
#ChaseForBook9
I want to know who dies too!! Or not... No, I want to know it... I guess...
*laughs* That is kind of funny... But not.
*pokes Cas* hehe
You don't have, KOTW, Taia? D:
You are MISSING OUT
KOTW is amazing omg
And, um, big.
#ChaseForBook9
NOBODY DIES.
THE BOOK IS ABOUT CUDDLY BUNNIES AND UNICORN-RAINBOWS.
EVERYONE IS HAPPY AND NOBODY IS HURT.
#ChaseForBook9
Lets face it Zafira probaby died in battle ot was killed guyd imagine if Slulduggery killed Zafira. She hates him so much I would die of laughter.
Ah Lucky people! Oh well, at least it was only 8 people after all.
For the people that did get it WOW good job I mean that has to be impressive that you one of the first 8 copies!!!!
And well theirs no use in complaining about it there is nothing that can be done.
And now i'm going to bed Night all!
Night Derek!
Unicorn rainbows.. *-*
IENI, I KNOW. D:
IT'S ALL WHSMITH'S FAULT.
#ChaseForBook9
@Adra, that's exactly what I was thinking. Is it wrong to laugh a bit?
*pokes back* ehehe
@Valice: xD
@Javier: :P
But I still think choking on a teaspoon would be a death Derek could fit in. ;)
#ChaseForBook9
hello, 8 copies
@Cas- we're going to hell :3
Zaf, maybe we kill each other.
I wonder what my discipline is
Well this could be his revenge on her for exploding Ireland, so my guess is its violent. And funny.
Ohh, whoops ;D Will there be wifi?
Adra if you and Zafira kill each othef it'll be funny.
GUISE
GUISE
EIGHT COPIES
BOOK EIGHT
IT IS A SIGN YOU GUISE
*stares* A sign, a sign we're all going to die. Someone should make a list of every Minion who gets mentioned and see how many are left.
I hope so. Maybe that is hell. A room. An empty room with no computer, no wifi.
Yeah. I hope I get to kill Zaf.
O.O
Adra.
#ChaseForBook9
*Yawns* If Ari comes on... *Yawns again* Tell her I say hi... And to check her emails because I sent her a soon to be published MC chapter... *Yawns a third time and collapses from exhaustion*
... It's also August. The EIGHTH month of the year.
... Were they sold on the 8th day, by any chance? :P
#ChaseForBook9
I looked it up, I can't tell yet.
ooooohhhhhhnooooooo WHy.
/whY/ bad things will be happening
Hell- No books, no wifi, no computer, no Skulduggery. We... We'd have to socialise with everyone else in the room. That really would be hell
Zafira hopes to kill you off Adra. I am all for laughing at every death and then seeing Zafira sob. The assassin part of me that laughs at death has never left me.
Yeah, ta Javier. You're quite the charmer. *bounces around* Meh. Meh. Meh. Meh.
I have to know.
I must know.
But I have at least another 27 days
I can not live with this
It was sold on either 8th, 9th or 10th...
10th. And Adra we could corner someone who got it and demand answers. Derek never said that we couldnt ask.
Um, no. I'm good, Zaf.
The problem is that it might not be only eight people.
Books can be passed around, you know
Everyone in Edinburgh is getting it early too.
Blegh.
*cries under a stool*
i have to wait until publication day
On 25th. 13 days. Not that I'm counting or anything...
It's only four days before though, not exactly two weeks. So it's not AS bad.
September 6th is the earliest we can get it.
*thrashes* I have until September tenth or eleventh, I think.
Meh.
im getting it publication day
That sucks.
august 27th
*rolls away*
Sorry, I'm getting far too impatient with my iPod. I'm gonna go before I throw it across the room or something.
*leaves hugs and blah*
#ChasrForBook9
YEAH? DONT TALK TO ME ABOUT YOUR GUK PROBLEMS OKAY? AMERICANS AREN'T IMPORTANT ENOUGH APPARENTLY...
*sobs slightly, nomming strawberries*
Sorry... I just had to add this... DEREK IF YOU DON'T COME BACK TO AUS AFTER NEXT YEAR I WILL LET ZAFF BLOW YOU AND YOUR LITTLE ISLAND UP AND I ALSO WILL NOT GIVE YOU A PURPLE BANANA WHICH I AM WORKING ON! DON'T TEMPT ME LANDY! I HAVE CONNECTIONS WITH SCARY PEOPLE WHO KNOW YOU!!!!
Also, I changed my profile pic!! *Makes derpy face and falls back asleep*
Edward, Publication Day is 29th.
Bye Taia
Adra, I think the only reason you have to order it is because not enough people in America like it. Of course you're important. If you like I can send you LSODM?
Us Americans tend to be ignored in the SP world, book wise. We do not get Derek or books. So yes anyone who thinks waiting until the 29th is bad has not been an Ameriminion, Zafira has 2 books signed, one because NJ got it for her and the second because Derek sent one to her when hers she sent got lost in the mail. Other wise she has nothing else signed. Book wise. She does have a Christmas card which is on her shelf.
@Zaf: I think that's probably a lot more signed than most of the UK-minions...
Sorry.
*gone*
#ChaseForBook9
* @Javier
Sorry.
*actually gone*
#ChaseForBook9
Most but I mean to point out the hell she went through. Though she did get followed by Derek for 30 seconds to DM him her address. Now he has it and if he ever came to the States and decided ti freak her out it would be priceless.
For the people who are reading my mass effect story I posted a new part yesterday.
http://masseffectfanfiction.blogspot.co.uk
Back in a mo, going to make lunch
Did I mentiom a weird sign? This is no joke. Everyday a crow sits outside Zaf's window irl. Sunday it wasn't there today it isnt there. Niccolo often shape shifts into a crow and him and Aretha are on vacation, freaky?
I gtg! <3
Bye Adra!
bye adra
Hey Edward, how are you?
fine thanks dragona, yourself?
I'm fine, too. ^^
And I'm proud of myself. I only played Mass Effect 2 for three hours today.
And tbh, for about 10 minutes of that time I had to explore an abandoned mine to see what had happened to the people who worked there after I had received a distress signal whilst trying to recover some minerals so I could upgrade the armour on my ship - ANYWAY. I entered the mine and was under attack by some zombie-like things called Husks, in their hundreds. It was very fun.
gtg now
Bye Edward!
Is there anyone else here?
*hugs Derek*
That must absolutely SUCK. I'm sorry :(
You seem really sad in this Blogpost (it might just be me, idk) so sorry if I'm jumping to assumptions, but as I said, I'm super sorry :/
#ChaseForBook9
Hey Maralie! How are you?
*sighs* This shall be the worst week of my entire life.
Hey Javier. ^^

Y'know what really sucks about this whole thing? Derek and his agent and his publishers and EVERYONE involved worked really hard on this book and SOMEONE SOMEWHERE has just gone and almost put it all to waste by messing up like this.

#ChaseForBook9
I just pulled 99 cranes out of a draw, folded one more so it reached 100, and then bagged 'em up and put them away. So, basically, I'm feeling patient enough to risk more impatience with my iPod, now. But returnig to iPod means returning to here, which does mean yay. So, like, yay! :P
#ChaseForBook9
Bye Mirth
Hi Taia
Has anyone ever been to Lledr Hall? (Pronounced Cleder Hall)
It's for my story.
#ChaseForBook9
Hi Taia! How are you?
#ChaseForBook9
@Rhydian: I don't think I have, but... It sounds Welsh? :P
Hey Zaf. :)
#ChaseForBook9
It is.
#ChaseForBook9
Never been. I'll ask the internet.
#ChaseForBook9
I did that Trip. It's for RCA. I thought it'd be a great place for it. But I went years ago and I can't remember it much. It's really nice there.
#ChaseForBook9
It looks pretty cool.
#ChaseForBook9
Hey Rhydian. :)
I'm okay, atm, thanks. How're you?
*nods*
I have friends who'd glare for saying 'll' is pronounced as a 'cl', but that's the best way I know how to explain it, too. :P
What is the place? :)
#ChaseForBook9
*curls up in a ball sobbing*
I know Trip. I was only there for two days but it was so nice
#ChaseForBook9
Well that was not a first on a page I expected.
I dedicate this page to people not dying. Because I swear to god if any of you die while Niccolo isnt here I'll make sure I bring you back tie you to an explosive tree.
There there Zaf.
#ChaseForBook9
Bad memories....very bad! *hasnt moved from spot*
I'm good Taia!
