Welcome, Apocrypha!

I don't really know where you can get a copy on-line.  I know that technology is out there somewhere...but, you'd have to pay for it with a Kindle Reader or something of that nature.

Quite a few people on this site (including myself) have picked up the Audio-Book version and listened to it that way.  I'm kinda biased as far as audiobooks go...simply because I prefer to listen to books in that auido format.  But, some people can't stand it to have someone else read to them!  :-)

Anyway, if you want to try the audiobook format you can go to Audible.com.  They actually have a Free 14-day trial program that you can take advantage of.  (You might have to do a quick google search for the free audible.com trial) 

Anyway...the book is really good in my opinion...so, hurry up and read it so we can discuss!!!

Welcome to the site.

As far as reading online. Well... the legal way would be to buy and download the eBook versions, but I don't think the entire series is released on eBook yet. They have been releasing the eBooks 1 a month since last month, so there are 2 currently available that I know of.

Of course there is what Garrison suggested. Unless you own an iPod or a ton of CDs and time to burn them, or don't mind sitting in front of a computer you can get Audio Books there pretty cheap. Plus your first book is free since they give you a free credit for signing up and 15 days free. Then after that it is $16 a month and you get a free credit. Credits can be used to buy any book. Using the credits, while slow, will get you the Audio Book versions of the series for less than what they are charging.

BTW, the Gathering Storm takes up 25 CDs in case you are wondering.

Welcome... Smiley

No, the entire series isn't yet available on ebook.  I believe the publishing schedule for ebooks is one a month over the next year.  You can find out more at Tor.com.

Again, welcome to the asylum!  The inmates are friendly... Smiley

I don't think there is any legal way to read the book posted online. Tor does usually post the Prologues for each book before they released. The Gathering Storm had the Prologue, Chapters 1 and 2 posted online.

I don't suggest trying to bittorrent the books, you'll more than likely find nothing and end up with a virus for your troubles.

Welcome 13joshuac as well!
