As of today, Schlockers worldwide have pre-ordered almost 1400 copies of Schlock Mercenary: Under New Management. Rob Balder announced, sight-unseen, that this book "will increase the class and resale value of any piece of furniture you lay it on. But that's academic, since you won't be able to put it down." I can't wait to put this book in your hands, because I think Rob may just be right. We're due to recieve them on May 10th, and plan to begin shipping pre-orders on May 13th. I can hardly sit still waiting for May 10th to roll around.
