Spears of God will be on the stands on November 28, 2006
WARNING TO REVIEWERS, COLLECTORS, SCHOLARS, AND CRITICS:
A WORD ON THE ADVANCE UNCORRECTED PROOFS OF /SPEARS OF GOD/
Although nearly all advance uncorrected proofs bear the warning "Please do not quote for publication without checking against the finished book," this admonition is particularly appropriate in regard to the advance uncorrected proofs of Spears of God. I made significant changes at the galley phase—at about the same time my publisher was already mailing out the advance uncorrected proofs. My thanks to my editors for their patience with my late final editing. For collectors, the differences between the advance uncorrected proofs and finished book may be a windfall, but reviewers, critics, and scholars would do well to proceed with caution regarding any comments on or quotations taken from the proofs. Please check against the finished book if at all possible.
