Aug 10, 2010 1:22:59 This is a ridiculous question, but I am legitimately confused. According to the forums (here) it would seem that the Dark Sun books have been released. However! Amazon claims that the Dark Sun books aren't available until August 17th (Campaign Guide) and August 31st (Monster Catalog). So I'm sure you can see my confusion. Is this because Amazon won't have their warehouses stocked until this date? Are the books only available in certain locations? What's going on?

Aug 10, 2010 1:24:04 Some stores are selling the books early. Your standard Barnes & Noble or Borders won't, but if you have a local gaming shop it's possible they're already selling the book. But the official release date is the 17th.

Aug 10, 2010 1:39:01 I have the Dark Sun campaign setting book, but for game stores that get early releases when are we supposed to get the Monster Catalog?

Alright thanks. Looks like I'm going to be waiting to the 17th then being we have essentially no tabletop gaming stores around here.

I bought both DSCS and DSCC last friday along with psionic power.
The Creature Catalog includes new monsters and a whole section of NPCs near the end of the book.
FLGS that are premier stores often have the new products approx. a tenday before release.
