Well,
Law of Nines appears to have tanked. (Amazon has
non-remaindered hardcovers available for $3.50 each.)
I am curious as to how well
The Omen Machine did - whether people were buying Terry Goodkind fantasy novels in general, or if they were buying Sword of Truth novels in particular. I know that for me it was the latter, which is why I borrowed it from the library instead of buying at release (unlike the last half-dozen books in the series). I'd indulged the author's... excesses? eccentricities? in later SOT books because I wanted to know how the story ended. Standalones with the characters... well, except Zedd... wasn't something I was exactly champing at the bit for.
(It helped that the ebook was windowed. If it wasn't, I'll have to be honest and say that I might have surrendered and bought it.
