Better News - for me, anyway!

Bantam 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.

I just have to toss my voice into the throng and say that TPOTS was absolutely amazing. Thank you so, so much for writing it. I've been waiting for a sequel to Swordspoint forever and it was definitely worth the wait - it was good to see Richard and Alec get some closure, although that's hardly the only thing that made the novel enjoyable. Thank you, again!

I live in Oklahoma and hope I can wrangle a day off in November to come hear your reading in August. It'd be worth the drive. :)
