Last night I was informed by TOR that the publication date of Isolate has been delayed until November 2nd because of the shortage of trained workers at the printing plant that produces all Macmillan books — as well as books for other publishers. This delay affects not only Isolate, but other TOR books and books from other publishers.

I was particularly happy with the original publication/release date because it fell on my birthday, but such a fortunate coincidence turned out to be too good to be true…as is often the case with coincidences.
