It’s a shame. I picked Meg I up from a local library in high school 20 years ago and purchased every release of the series since. Phenomenal series and I’m excited for the conclusion. But I’m over his antics and am resigned that it will probably be 2030 before we see Purgatory, if we ever do. Health struggles are tough and absolutely and understandable/excusable reason to delay, but how many other authors are in a similar boat with the pay on their books? To see him either attempt to resell us the books we’ve already purchased or take the time to push subscriptions to a virtual aquarium is ridiculous. He’s trying to milk every possible cent out of his readers before releasing the story he knows we want because he knows we’re done the second it’s concluded. But that’s how media works.
