If anyone tried to redeem the code for the audio book and got a US only message you can use Chrome and install a proxy that appears in US create an account redeem then close the proxy connection it will be available in the libary.

One part is still not known:

Giveaway Contest: In an effort to further show our appreciation, we invite you to participate in a GIVEAWAY contest. You have the chance to win one of 26 signed hardcover deluxe editions of Cool Food. These editions are exclusive collector's items, individually signed and labeled from A to Z.

I have not heard about this since a few weeks ago.

Hi. I found the website to participate in the giveaway contest. Although this offer is only valid for US residents, when you register to participate in the contest you are not asked to provide a valid US mailing address. Winners will be require to provide a US mailing address within 1 week of being notified. Link to enter giveaway contest: https://www.coolfoodbook.com/

So they made 26 of these books but are only going to give away 2 of them to all the fans they 'disappointed'. What appreciation. Great marketing.

I thought they'd be giving away 26? thats what the email I got weeks ago said.

No, according to the contest they produced 26 but are only giving away 2.  I can only assume the other 24 will go to business relations.

Blackstone Publishing is producing 26 unique, lettered copies of Cool Food that will be signed by the authors, and 2 copies will be given to randomly chosen winners

It's Blackstone too, after their last episode of incompetency, they'd be lucky to find their arse with both hands, let alone 2 signed copies of the book.

Randomly signed copies for those wanting to try.

I wish they would either:

1) tell you how many signed ones they are actually getting.

OR

2) give you approximate odds of a signed copy

A lottery, I know the last lottery was Bono with the Ireland book store but at least that was all early orders got them but this being picked not first come first served is too big a risk.

It could be one book for all we know which could be "sold" to one of their employees. That's worst case. Was it also talkshop that had random Dolly Parton books signed and there was never evidence of anyone actually receiving one? It's best to stay away unless you actually were going to buy an unsigned copy anyways

Aka - we want to sell more books, but not too many? 

lol

Randomly signed is lame. Sign them or dont. 

With two days to go did anyone find a signed copy available to pre-order outside of one single bookshop?

I also chose to get a free audio book and signed up for the mailing list alert and competition.

Nothing has happened with anything. Blackstone is a total joke.

Release date and not shipped. Instead it's showing backordered.
