My pie-in-the-sky dream is that the book would get scrapped in favor of more game content. I have little interest in novels to complete the narrative that a game started. The same, I absolutely loathe having to have required reading to understand what is going on with the story in a video game. Like Halo 4 and its assumption that you had read the Forerunner series, and then watched the Halo live action film in order to fully grasp the narrative and characters in the central plot of the game.

Y'all already asked me to do this in The Twitter Thread about a week or so ago. I tweeted Casey Hudson and got no reply. I'm not going to annoy the devs by re-tweeting them the same question that they obviously chose not to answer or cannot answer at this time. That is not good etiquette and won't help me get potential answers to questions in the future.

I wouldn't read too much into it, I think the website just hasn't been updated since the book was first listed. Australia's a small market and the site probably hasn't been advised that its been pushed back.

Forgot stuff?!?!?!?!
*gasp*
*clutches pearls*
Oh, wait, I forgot β¦ I forget stuff too (or three).
*snicker*
On a semi-serious note β¦ we have a UK release date, an Australian release date, a North American release date that all differ, plus a Kindle offering that supposedly released on 28 Jun that is currently out of stock β¦ really Kindle, how can you be out of stock?
/semi-serious
So not sure what is going on, only that when the Nov 7 Quarian "Go For the Eyes" DLC is released, all will be forgiven.

My vote is that on N7 day, BioWare is going to reveal that Annihilation has been shelved. I think it's a terrible idea but BioWare has no interest in getting this book out so that's the conclusion I've drawn.

The book is done, and has been done for a while, per Catherynne Valente, the co-author with Mac Walters...can't see the release being stopped at this point.

I am not convinced Bioware/EA would do that from a commercial perspective or from a customer relations perspective, can you imagine the shit storm from the haters if they did that. Not to mention they'll make money from the sales of the book and I can't see them forgoing that. On a purely positive note I am still hoping it is being held back to coincide with DLC or hell even another patch.

Best we can hope for is that the book will coincide with N7 day - though no N7's are actually part of the game (Alec aside, briefly).

If they were cancelling the book, I think doing it on N7 Day is probably the worst day they could do it for two reasons. 1. It would be kind of a spit in the face to do that on the day about Mass Effect, and would go completely against their notion of "We haven't abandoned Mass Effect" if on the very day dedicated to it they abandon a Mass Effect project. 2. It would not be a wise move financially since that is so close to Anthem's release and would thus no doubt possibly cause some to not buy the game because of how they will still be raw about this when it comes out.

A little late, but in case you haven't see this... That is a little interesting, could, of course, just be some more Anthem stuff, even though Edmonton is taking the lead, but seems a little odd like a nod that something may be happening... I really don't want to get my hopes up, so I'm firmly in the "there will be no DLC" camp. Won't be upset if I'm wrong though π

Though that is the cynic in me.
