I was the one that initially offered the date (via FictFact),
However, FictFact is basically someone's "hobby" site they use to keep track of upcoming books they want to read. No real association with publishers, so we are still just going off of someone's "guess".

No actual booksellers, publishers or Jim Butcher's website really have a date nailed down.

And I thought the original "guesstimate" on release was like summer of 2014...

Amazon.de has 3rd December too.
That is of course also just a guess, but Amazon is often good when it comes to guessing release dates.
So theres still hope for a release this year.

[QUOTE=alansplace;2614398]DragonCon 2013 - Friday - The Men of Urban Fantasy [QUOTE]

Two thoughts struck me:
1. There's a whole lot of beards in that vid.
2. The Men of Urban Fantasy would not be a calendar that I would buy.

That is all.

hmmm...er...it'd be highly unlikely for me to purchase any calendar at all, but if I did it certainly wouldn't be one that featured seven men, bearded or un-bearded!

I remember that as well and I also remember being kinda' surprised when the FictFact date was posted.

I'd prefer a really good tv show over a "one time" movie.

Yes, I saw that, but...

Spoiler:

Shouldn't we have TWO new knights of the sword?
Shiro dying was the first knight to be replaced.
Michael Carpenter being taken out of commission was the second knight.

I think its a given that Murphy will take up Fidelacchius...
However, will that be a possible future occurrence and will we have a different character coming in to wield Amoracchius at this point?

Interesting interview Alan, thank you.

Just finished Libriomancer today.
I enjoyed it, guess that means I have to read yet another Urban Fantasy series

Now I'm off to read Chosen.
