Just an update on the availability of the DAD novelization.

Amazon.co.uk has the UK hardcover and the UK paperback showing a November 7 release date and this synopsis:

"James Bond is back. Beginning in the demilitarized zone between North and South Korea, continuing via Hong Kong, Cuba and London, Bond races against time to unmask a traitor and prevent a war of catastrophic consequence. "Die Another Day" is based on Neal Purvis and Robert Wade's screenplay."

Amazom.com has the US paperback showing a Nov. release date.

but

BN.com has the US paperback showing a Oct. 28 release date.

BN.com also has audio versions of the book on CD and
Cassette showing an Oct 1 (!) release date.

Still no sign of a cover pic, but as soon as they appear I'll post them here.

That's going to be painfully tempting having the novelization out almost a full month before the final film.

Still, I think I can manage to stay free of the major spoilers until the 22nd.

Very very interesting release dates there! I just looked at B&N though, and I couldnt' see the specific October releases Zencat, only 'October'.

But an audio CD of the novelisation! That I gotta get!

May I be cruel and play devil's advocate for a moment:

Perhaps the folks at B&N online made a typo...and the dates are for November and Decemeber? I honestly can't see the novels coming out that much earlier than the film.
