User blog:Masseffect7/About these Andromeda books...

First of all, all the reports that came out in late June said that the first of the Mass Effect: Andromeda books was to come out sometime this month. Has anyone found anything as far as an exact date? I've searched various online stores and I can't seem to find anything as far as it being on sale yet. The best source I've found, the publishers rights guide @ http://media.titanbooks.com/filebrowser/2016_rights_guides_fiction_libf1.pdf just says August 2016. Also, something interesting is that the title of the book on the cover graphic does not match the stated title Mass Effect: Andromeda Initiative. This could indicate that the name changed at some point, or it was simply a mistake. According to this guide, the book is 336 pages long and is written by female sci-fi writer N.K. Jemisin. Supposedly these novels are supposed to fill in the gaps between the original trilogy and the events of ME:A. What questions would you most like to see answered? Anyhow, it's good to see that the buildup to Andromeda is starting, albeit somewhat slow for my taste.
