Is there a release date yet for Into the Light?

Aliens? Invading aliens? What will Earth do? Well...we may have a few more resources than we first thought. Come join a friendly discussion about David Weber's newest Tor series - "Out of the Dark."

His first appearance was a big one.

I mean what kind of man is able to get into whispering distance of an on-alert Marine? :lol:

Not a word of foreshadowing? Really? -checks you for a fever- Did Weber kick your dog or something? I will be polite, that is just a bad take, for two reasons. 1) It was SUPPOSED to be an out of left field, or "out of the dark" twist. 2) That said, there was a TON of foreshadowing. In fact, many people on here complained to DW that he made it a little too obvious what was coming. Hell, when Vlad was described to us, long before he even gave his assumed name, I was like... oh, he wouldn't, but he did.

All of the above is interesting, but DO we have a release date for the printed word? I can't find one on Amazon.

Nothing beyond the date we got from the Bu9-tweet last july (you find the link to it in the 3rd post on the 1st page of this thread). So, January 2021 was it then, and January 2021 ist it now ...

There is no problem so complex that it cannot be solved through the judicious application of high-power explosives.
