    Default Need a Copy of "Good Deeds Gone Unpunished"

    Hello,

    I've gotten one of my friends into OOTS recently. She cranked through all the books in short order and immediately after became a Patreon patron. Her favorite character by far is O'Chul, but she came on too late to get a copy of "Good Deeds Gone Unpunished". It's out of print. I'm trying to find a copy that already exists somewhere that we can purchase her for Christmas. I've been searching and calling around without any luck, so I'm coming here, hoping to find somebody willing to part with a copy. Help an old fan help a new fan out?

    Thank You,
    Gary

    Don't have any good leads for you. I did some searches but the only thing that came back was on Amazon.es: https://www.amazon.es/dp/0976658097 (even there it's listed as a pre-order with availability December 30th). There was also a search site that returned a result in Australia for ~$100US, but wouldn't show me which store without creating an account so no joy there, and in any event, at that price you'd be better buying a cheap tablet and the ebook.

    Hopefully you can find someone willing to sell.

    It's available as a PDF on Gumroad. https://gumroad.com/richburlew

    If she wants a physical copy, you could always pay to have it printed and bound.

    Is Snips, Snails, and Dragon Tales ever going to be available as a PDF? Or reprinted? It's going for $159 on Amazon, which is a bit steep.

    IIRC, the Giant said there would be a PDF some time after the print run sold out. The print run is now sold out, but he hasn't announced a PDF for SSaDT, so either he changed his mind, or he is still working on it, or I just misremembered.

    Thanks! No joy on the amazon.es link. I contacted the dealer behind it and evidently that's up in error. They did put me in touch with a place called Noble Knight Games, but that was also a bust. The hunt goes on!

    Could you please provide that Aussie site, or the search site that led you there? I would really appreciate it.

    Noble Knight remains a general clearinghouse for most things RPG related, so you might want to consider wishlisting it there.

    Seconding the PDF. It's not ideal, but it will give you the most crucial part! I've enjoyed every OotS PDF story I bought and intend to do the same with Snips, Snails, & Dragon Tails.

    Has there been any statement on whether GDGU will be reprinted, and, if so, any kind of timeline on it? It's the only one I don't have a copy of since I filled in the rest of my collection this year during the sale. Other books haven't sold out so quickly, so I didn't realize I'd need to order it right when it came out to get a copy... (I don't want a PDF. I know my organizational skills, and they're heavily skewed toward being able to find physical objects rather than data files 20+ years later.)

    I was looking for a copy just a couple months ago and I remember it being very difficult to find. I did eventually find a used copy for just slightly above list price. Now, the only results I can find are pages where it's listed out of stock and reddit threads asking where they can find it. I must've grabbed up the very last copy available on the internet.

    I was about to suggest tracking down a library near you that had a copy, borrowing it, and then claiming you'd "lost" it. However, a search of WorldCat suggests no library has a copy of the book. And that's the world catalog.

    Based on this, I feel safe to say that this book is rarer than pieces of the True Cross. This suggests that there exists some vast, shadowy Templar-ish organization that is hunting down and destroying copies of the book, and silencing owners so effectively that nobody is aware of this sinister conspiracy. Perhaps the book contains a secret cypher which, if comprehended, would reveal a secret that would threaten our very understanding of human life itself.

    They are already among us, watching us - probably on this very forum. Monitoring our words to see who is showing signs of being Touched by the epiphany, so they can direct their assassins to cut down these unfortunate souls.

    The only question is: Why are they doing this? Do they seek power? Or do they wish to protect us? Or perhaps they merely wish to protect themselves, from knowledge they fear to know?

    The book is the key. Read the book. The secrets must be in there.

    That's ridiculous. I own the book and have never been threatened in any way, nor have I have seen any evidence that other book owners have been disappearing. The only thing in it that's even slightly close to being a cipher is the part where Hinjo's junk is about toindfdswnnvernvek4;w/w44+#)$

    Hehe, no. I was just kidding, there is no risk - it's just a joke. You shouldn't take what I said seriously, my cyber-friend - I'm just some simpleton on the internet who says stupid things and does not have a trustworthy personality. I'm probably on drugs or something, which explains why I lived in this tiny flat with a weird address that took forever to find. So I was on drugs yesterday and I had a hallucination that made me say crazy untrue things about the Book. But I'm totally recovered and alive now and I made a mistake. The Book is normal.

    I hear the pdf version is really great. I think more people should read it. I hear there is negligible risk of the pdf revealing our secrets. People who own the Book should purchase the pdf and read that instead of the Book.

    The Book is completely fine, though. It's normal. The pdf is just better. All current owners of the Book should buy the pdf now.

    Remember to enter your current addresses when you buy the pdf. For shipping.


    (edit)
    There is no secret Conspiracy.

    Hmm, I just noticed that no one with a ♀️ marker on their profile has posted in this thread. If there was a secret conspiracy related to an OOTS book, it probably wouldn't allow girls. COINCIDENCE? Could it be that everyone posting on this thread is part of the conspiracy?

    Of course, if a girl does show up and post, that doesn't guarantee they aren't in the conspiracy either, given that SOME secret clubs are like the Sapphire Guard and do allow girls.

    For now, absent a declaration that it definitely won't be reprinted, my plan is to wait until the current/final book is available to buy in print and check back to see if they've done a GDGU reprint at a time that would allow me to buy both and save on shipping. (Or next time some other side book gets published, perhaps related to other Kickstarter stories.) I'm not going to fuss with printing and binding from a pdf when being patient will hopefully work at some point.

    Which, being a dragon, is a considerable amount of money.
