Teraport Wars Pre-Orders Opening Tuesday

We will open worldwide pre-orders for Schlock Mercenary: The Teraport Wars on Tuesday, September 2nd at 8:00am Mountain Time.

The book is $25.00, plus shipping and handling. If you want a numbered, customer-choice sketch edition, it’s $35.00+s&h.

Sketch editions will be available until at least Friday morning at 8:00am, so you have three full days to order one of those. If we haven’t hit 1,000 by then, we’ll keep sketch editions available until we do.

If you crazy people order more than 1,000 between Tuesday morning and Friday morning, well… Sandra will have to let me draw in all of them because that is much less complicated than refunding money would be. Let’s show her who’s boss.

We ship just about anywhere in the world, including APO addresses. We’ve shipped product to all seven continents and to at least 40 countries. It should go without saying that we’ve shipped to all 50 United States, but I just counted to make sure. Yup. We’ve only shipped to eight out of ten Canadian provinces, though, so those of you hailing from Prince Edward Island or Newfoundland & Labrador need to get with the program. I’m not sure how the system tracks U.S. or Canadian Territories, but I suspect those of you in the Mariana Islands and Nunavut also remain unrepresented.

We plan to ship these books in six weeks, beginning on October 9th.

If you pre-ordered your book at Comic-Con, and I told you that you had an “advance copy,” your book will go into the mail on Saturday. I’m sorry it’s not in the mail yet! I still need to create the uber-cool Customer Choice Sketch Edition stamp, and until I know the exact number of books I’ll be sketching, I can’t. But I’ll have a number come Friday.

    1. WorldCon pre-orders will go out with the rest of the pre-orders. I only had 8 advance copies for sale, and those were gone by 10:00am Thursday at Comic-Con.

      I have exactly ten advance copies of the book. One is for me. Eight are for the first eight Comic-Con attendees who pre-ordered. One will get number 001 in it, I will illustrate the back page in loving color, and then we’ll put it up on eBay.

      Mercenary? ME? Why, I never…

  1. “We’ve shipped product to all seven continents…”

    Was this just a bit of hyperbole, or have you actually shipped to Antarctica? Inquiring minds want to know!

        1. I wasn’t willing to wait until when I got back to Oregon in February. It took a while before they actually put it on a plane from Christchurch, but it still made it to McMurdo long before I could have got my hands on it any other way. =D

  3. I can’t believe i’m asking this again, “mountain time”? Can I get a conversion for GMT?

    Quick Note from the Future, Tuesday the 2nd of September at 8:00am. The traffic sucks.

        1. Oh this pleases me greatly…

          I’ll remember to bring padding and body armor for the eventual beating Sandra will give me. 🙂
