Words like swindle and scam are appearing in the posts and will no doubt continue to do so. Perhaps Jeff Bond could persuade the publisher to address the investors with some concrete information.

Pretty thrilled that I could not afford getting involved in this, but, it is quite a shame.
The math and the amount of time just does not look good here.

Delays are never pleasant, but they are still forgivable if they are well explained and the explanations are understandable. But that doesn't seem to be the case here. What is going on here is absolutely reprehensible...

Well we certainly won't fall for it again...

Creators of the already-complicated, forthcoming 4-volume James Horner opus... BEWARE.

So glad I decided to "wait and see" on this one. I feel for anyone vested in it.

Thanks for the recap Bruce.

Personally, I feel swindled.

This has made me rethink ever contributing to a Kickstarter again.

James


I agree. This was my first ever kickstarter campaign. I then followed it with the Horner campaign,then Nosferatu and now Abbot & Costello.

I won’t be contributing anymore money until I actually see something in my hands.


Wait did something happen with Abbot & Costello? I thought that kickstarter was going smoothly

I picked up that Evolution of the POTA book in our Forbidden Planet for £3.99 (it's still in its shrink wrap).
Just sayin'

Titan Publishing and Forbidden Planet are the same company, and regularly discount their old stock. Not sure what that has to do with this publication.

Shouldn't the topic heading be changed to ' not upcoming ' by now.

Or maybe release the goddamn book already?

This whole thing is such a scam and everyone involved in it is now tainted by association.

In a nutshell: nothing.

If Fyre Festival was a book.

If Fyre Festival was a book.

I had to google Fyre Festival and now get it.

This is not good. For the owners of this campaign (and it’s been so long I forget who they are) to not come on here and update us is unbelievable. Unless of course it is a scam….

At least they faced some form of consequence.

It looks like these clowns will just ride off into the sunset with our cash.

Maybe they should have just called Titan publishing?

I'm sure they could have done a good job, with the money available to print/press this book.
And they've put out a Jeff Bond book before.

Anyone think to report this thing to Kickstarter?

I'm embarrassed to admit that it's been so long since my contribution I can't even remember how much I paid, or what level of contribution I chose. I know it wasn't near what others may have put in. I did get the digital copy, so there is that.

Trying to look at the "glass half full" side of this and tell myself that these delays happen from time to time and eventually we will have book in hand with a reasonable explanation for the wait, etc etc. But it just seems like there are no more excuses left for the wait and lack of communication.

Buy the Bond book on TMP and let it salve your wounds, it is an excellent book.
This thing here is going to carry on for years, be realistic, nothing is on the horizon anytime soon with this.
