Just curious whether anyone got a pre-release copy yet?

There was someone on ENWorld who claimed to have a copy from origins, but he never posted back with a review or anything so I wonder if he had or not.

I am sure that many of us are just clamering for this book. When is the official release date?

As long as books don't keep getting pushed back and back, I don't mind how long it takes.

Hrmm. I thought I heard somewhere at some point on these very boards mention that they hoped to have the High Sorcery source book ready for Origins? Didn't that just happen this past weekend? Anyone know anything about that?

There was a copy available to look at, and preorders were being taken, but the book isn't back from the printers yet. It should be around sometime in the next few weeks - previews will be posted every Wednesday until then.

Cheers,

Web previews until it comes out?! Now I'm hoping it gets pushed back!

In the Beastiary they seemed to give something from every chapter. I hope they're doing this for the Towers too. We have a tower description, and how the conclave is run... soon we'll probably have new magic items, spells, prestige classes! Uh... other things...

You got it in one, there, Nived. An excerpt from each chapter is forthcoming (which will also tell you what chapters are going to be in the book, funnily enough.)

I wonder if the ToHS sourcebook will make my groups' Wizard/Fighter think twice about dropping his wizard class ? Because as of now he is talking about just leaving the wizard class be and excelling as a fighter.

Hopefully there will not be another delay like Key of Destiny. That was horrible.

The wait for the KOD was terribly long and annoying.
