I love this series and fortunately, I have all the original paperback books. Dipi _____ From: glencook-fans-bounces@mailman.xmission.com [mailto:glencook-fans-bounces@mailman.xmission.com] On Behalf Of Marc Rikmenspoel Sent: Sunday, March 15, 2009 6:10 PM To: Glen Cook: Science Fiction/Fantasy Author Subject: [Glencook-fans] Garrett reprints I noticed a couple of things on Amazon today. Whispering Nickel Idols must have gone to a 2nd printing, as it now has a list price of $7.99 (confirmed on Penguin/Roc's website), while it was first released at $6.99. I had wondered how Cruel Zinc Melodies could sell well enough to go to a 3rd printing, without its predecessor novel getting beyond the first printing. (for paperbacks such as these, publishers don't change the list price unless they reprint the book and change the price printed on the cover) Petty Pewter Gods is still listed for August 4, 2009 reprinting, with Deadly Quicksilver Lies scheduled now to follow on December 1, 2009. This still seems to me to be a case of confusion, which isn't unusual with Amazon listings for forthcoming books. Why would Roc skip Red Iron Nights (book 6), to move ahead to Petty Pewter Gods (book 8), and then go back to Deadly Quicksilver Lies (book 7)? I suspect that Red Iron Nights will actually be out sooner, circa May or June of this year, followed by Deadly Quicksilver Lies in August, and Petty Pewter Gods in December. This would leave Faded Steel Heat (book 9) and Angry Lead Skies (book 10) to be reprinted in 2010. I had wondered how Whispering Nickel Idols (book 11) would fit into all this, but the reprint indicated above takes care of that, even before the book has fully gone out of print (I saw a $6.99 1st printing at a local Barnes & Noble this weekend). Perhaps the entire series will be in print by the time book 13, whatever it ends up being called, is released in 2010-2011!
