ellenkushnerBantam tells me that the trade paperback of TPOTS has gone back to press yet again. The initial print run was not huge, mind you, but this will be the fourth printing since July 25 this year: 2,500 more copies now available to the teeming masses. Thank you, thank you, thank you, readers and friends, for helping this happen! (I don't quite have the nerve to ask Gavin how the SBP hardcover is selling, but I hear there are many satisfied customers out there. FYI, the Spanish edition will be out soon, too.) There's a sweet photo of me with my Bantam editor Anne Groell taken last week by Ellen Datlow at the KGB reading here.
I'll be reading from the new novel on Oct. 5 at Books of Wonder and Dec. 5 at South Street (both NYC), Austin Nov. 5 - do we see a pattern here? - and in Boston the week of Oct. 24. Details here.

Date: 2006-09-27 09:12 pm (UTC)OK, that does it. I'm going to call in your ancient pledge to make me a really cool icon soon. I know not what it will be, but it will be the wonder of the earth. Or something.

Date: 2006-09-26 10:15 pm (UTC)I really loved the book. I have become a cranky, suspicious, grudging, ungracious reader over the past few years, but there are chinks in any armor, and TPotS found every single one effortlessly.
