As if my computer at home isn’t strong enough to run much of anything, I get to be stuck at work on a Friggin Sunday, so I guess I’ll have to listen to you guys when he slips it in the stream, so ask good questions.

Great book Sigler, now where’s that Mt. Fitzroy book at hmmm? Have you been sitting on your laurels enjoying the glow of your fans raving about your brillance? Hmmmmm?

GET BACK TO WORK!!!

after a beer or two of course, great job.

Yes as you can guess, Geoff got me hooked. The bastard! I in turn, have done my part and have started getting new Junkies hooked for you also. All hail Sigler. May he live long and prosper, crush Amazon, take over the Universe and take us along for the ride.

Great job on The Rookie!!! I loved every minute. I guess I will be Jonesing until The Starter comes out. The ending was different than what I was expecting but so much better.

I have but two questions:
1) I cannot help but think that Chick McGee is from a certain earth morning radio program. Any relation there? I was waiting for a “Wherever you go, whatever you do, always be a good sport.”
2) Where can I get my Krakens championship apparel?

Thanks Scott!

Great work, scott, what an ending. Should be a film would make a bloody good one as well. Sci fi Directors listen up - YOU NEED TO GET THIS BOOK IN A FILM ADAPTATION. that’s this next biggest Sci fi blockbuster of NEXT YEAR…..

Can not wait for the Book to come out Well done Scott Roll on Book two and noctural

Awsome Scott, simply AWSOME. listened to it this morning and i still get shivers when i think about QB’s TD. Enjoyed every minuite of The Rookie and can’t wait for your next work.

This was a great ending to an already great story. Thank you, Scott, for making The Rookie and all your other fantastic works freely available to the public. I look forwarding to adding a copy of the print version of The Rookie to my library when Dragon Moon Press releases it this fall. And I’m definitely looking forward to Nocturnal.

Please keep up the great work. Thanks!

Really good. Thanks Scott. I just got my local library to order Earthcore and The Rookie too. Just slipping a ruffie in the local water supply for the master pusher. Now my next fix… will audio for Quentin’s secondlife press conference be made avaliable?

Great story! I agree about not ending it as a nail-biter.

Cannot wait for the Starter.

This whole story just ROCKED! Scott, you are the man.

By: Patrick Pricken

Patrick Pricken — Wed, 25 Apr 2007 16:34:51 +0000

Wow. Great episode. Let me also add that I tremendously enjoyed the fact that the game didn’t run close to the last second. I was subconsciously expecting it: “Now this team is gonna score again, and then that team will have to make another comeback and come close to it in the final seconds, and then…”

Great choice not to do that. Also, I tried not to spoil the winner here, though I’m not sure that’s necessary. And bring on Nocturnal!

By: Selganor

Selganor — Wed, 25 Apr 2007 14:16:11 +0000

Wow… I have never been so moved by a Sigler novel so far.

But 2008! You can’t be serious… First Galactica, now Sigler.

If that’s you devious plan to rule the world by making people buy your stuff it may well be working…

Keep up the good work

I got another one of those stupid amazon “you need to confirm your order” emails for Ancestor.

Everyone check your emails.

Damn fine story, Scott. Thanks for the hours of entertainment (again). I think I may go through withdrawal pretty soon and end up in rehab if you have another podcast in the works.

By: Garth

Garth — Wed, 25 Apr 2007 11:46:32 +0000

Much thanks for another awesome podcast book Scott … much appreciated.

Many, many thanks for this story Scott. Awesome stuff. Really enjoyed it.

I’ve been saving the Earthcore paperback until this finished so I can finally get round to reading that but I just KNOW that I’m going to have your voices in my head as I read

By: Lar

Lar — Wed, 25 Apr 2007 01:41:20 +0000

Scott, two words: Krakens Rule!!!

Thanks for entertaining us week after week. I hope this isn’t the last we see of Barnes and Co. You really made this bunch of fictional future football players come alive for us. Don’t leave us hanging for long!

Thanks again. Two more words:

TIER ONE!!!!!!!!!

LOVE THE ROOKIE!! Can’t get enough of the Sig. Can’t wait for Book 2 and Nocturnal!
Personally, I say, F@#$ Amazon and anyone else who stands in the way of you doing whatever the f@#$ you want to do with your own work. Line ‘em the F@#$ up and the Junkies’ll take ‘em down.
Keep up the great work, Scott. Hope to hear your voice again real soon. I think you deserve every possible accolade for this work; it’s better than (almost) anything else on the planet!

Just: thank you Scott. Brilliant.

By: Peter

Peter — Tue, 24 Apr 2007 22:00:29 +0000

Wooohoo you ROCK Scott!
Or if i wanted to say it in J.C.’s words: You’re AWESOME!!

Let’s see if we can get the Rookie in the Top3 in November =D, just tell me when to buy it and “I will comply”!

Oh and i almost forgot my line which makes me a real sigler fan:
What did i hear about you in one interview? You didn’t write for some Months now? Get your LAME ASS (there it was, the insult, do i count as a real fan now? behind a computer and start writing FULL TIME! I want more books to buy!

GO KRAKENS GO
GO SIGLER GO!!

It’s been a great run, Scott. Thank you for your hard work and effort in making this book so great and giving us something fun to listen to and share with friends.

I didn’t think that you would top Ancestor, but the Rookie has pump-faked and gone deep right to the top of my favotires list!

Wishing you all the success and happiness that there is,

Chuck

Long time listener, second time poster. The Rookie is…well words canny says really, well some words from ‘The High One’ maybe but lets not pat his ego. I only wish I could listen to the last two episodes, but alass itunes and even my PC seem to be against me.

Well time to go bribe a friend with some cookies and sneak some time with their net and CD burner :))

I’m buzzing. I’m actually buzzing. Now.. Till nocturnal… I have no idea what i’m going to do. I might actually pass my exams because i’ll be revising rather than listening to you. Yeah… Till nocturnal.

Allen/Astral Guardian — Tue, 24 Apr 2007 18:23:11 +0000

Definitely worth the wait. Awesome doesn’t describe it. Hell, I’m going to listen to both episodes again because you know how sick and twisted I am. You’ve outdone yourself. Basque in the glory Boss. You’ve earned it.

For you junkies that need one last “Sigler Fix” after this FANTASTIC Rookie Podcast… Scott’s interview with Skepticality was just posted:

“This week on Skepticality, author and skeptic Scott Sigler talks to Derek and Swoopy about finding the skeptic movement, and the recent success of his newly released, science-informed horror novel Ancestor (an Amazon.com bestseller). Scott also tackles the future of traditional book publishing in the age of podiobooks. Before we let him go, Scott reveals the names of the folks who will be receiving autographed copies of his books Earthcore and Ancestor.

Link: http://skepticality.libsyn.com/index.php?post_id=204818

I’ll be listening in to see if Scott mentions my name…if not, I got some chicken shears in the kitchen drawer. (Snip-Snip)

Thanks again, Scott!
You are a hell of a storyteller!
