And while you're there, check out this amazing variant on the Thrawn: Alliances cover art, which is going to be the cover for the San Diego Comic Con Exclusive edition of the book. #SDCC #StarWars Long time no see, Anakin!

2018 SDCC Penguin / Random House / Del Rey / Spectra Exclusives
« Reply #3 on: June 25, 2018, 01:48:06 PM »
I am totally going to have to get that Thrawn exclusive cover. I already ordered the book on amazon but everyone needs two copies right?!

Funnily enough, he was at Planet Comiccon 2017 and I just so happened to notice his table-only one other person was there! So I walked away with a nice signed copy of Thrawn after waiting a whole 30 seconds *sigh*  (I'm thinking it wasn't heavily advertised he would be there-I had no idea until I got there)

Edit-year, time got away from me

Funnily enough, he was at Planet Comiccon 2016 and I just so happened to notice his table-only one other person was there! So I walked away with a nice signed copy of Thrawn after waiting a whole 30 seconds *sigh*  (I'm thinking it wasn't heavily advertised he would be there-I had no idea until I got there)

So lucky! I am officially on a mission to get 2 authors autographs this year now.  Tim and R.A. Salvatore.

Seeing the release date before hand, I had my suspicions they would release an exclusive cover and there is a mighty need to get this!  Last year I lucked out on preview night with Inferno Squadron but no PN for me this year, hopefully it won't be impossible to do.

I was able to get Inferno Squadron with no hassle Thursday last year.  I was on the floor somewhat first thing but didn't go to their booth right away and still was able to get a wristband.  I have a feeling though that Thrawn will be a little more popular lol.  (That said, I did end up liking Inferno Squad, I know some people didn't but whatever, it was enjoyable for what it was.)

I think we picked up our copy on Saturday, we didn't even know about the book beforehand just walked by the booth and asked about it. But I expect this book to be more in demand as well.

Is Salvatore going to be at SDCC, had not seen him mentioning anything in his feed. His new book timeless is not out until later this year and everything else I have by him is already signed. But he's a favorite author of mine

if Zahn is at SDCC it will be like Celebration level madness...

I’ve seen no mention of Zahn appearing! I do hope he’s there though!

ah my mistake, i was just skimming the thread and thought I saw you said he was going to be there. or I inferred based on your post re his signing at celebration. which was interesting!

As far as I know it’s just the cover! It’s a double edged sword honestly! As much as I want him to be there, if he isn’t it could make the book easier to grab!

Last year was easy, but the Zahn books are WAY more popular!

Oh boy he will be there.  The convention exclusives already come autographed but he is available for personalization (and I assume to sign anything else you want) at AA28 every day.  Looks like same exact wristband process as last year.

The book/audiobook is already signed, can I get it personalized?

Yes, the convention edition sold is pre-signed by Timothy Zahn, but he will have signings in the Autographing Area at Table 28 every day, and he’d be happy to personalize your edition. After purchasing your copy at the Del Rey booth, you can bring your book to the autographing area at the below times (please note, the book will not be available for purchase in the autographing area):

Thursday, 4:00 PM – 7:00 PM
Friday, 4:00 PM – 7:00 PM
Saturday, 4:00 PM – 7:00 PM
Sunday, 3:00 PM – 5:00 PM
