Midkemia Press Going Through Changes?

[Eternalknight]

I'd love to see both of those settings done as well, especially Thieves World.

As for Midkemia, I can't talk for the whole series, as I'm still in the middle of reading it (halfway through Serpentwar) but I have liked everything I have read so far.

Well I won't spoil Serpentwar...even though I thought it sucked. But that's just me. But yeah it would be nice if all three settings were offered as d20. I wouldn't care who did it...(Well scratch that. I doubt I want FFE anywhere NEAR them.) Just like them out and about for people to enjoy.

D20 Products based on Feist's books or set within his novels' worlds. OHHH YES would I buy something like that.

Actually, Feist's books are based on the setting. Their campaign world and gaming material came before he wrote the books. He was either one of the players or the gamemaster.
BTW, my D&D group just finished The Black Tower, a module from Midkemia Press, which I (roughly) converted to 3E.

This is a partial hijack (so I partially apologize )...

Anybody know when Feist is supposed to finish the Krondor series? I read The Betrayal, The Assassins, and Tear of the Gods, and was immensely annoyed to discover that it wasn't a trilogy, as I'd been led to believe, but the first three books of a longer series. (I've since heard the number five tossed around, but I dunno if it's accurate.) I was even more aggravated to discover that he'd gone to work on some other stuff--Talons of the Silver Hawk, or something like that--before finishing the Krondor series. (I think authors who start new series before finishing plotlines they've already got running should be drawn and quartered, but that's a different topic.)

So, any news? Anyone know if he's said when he plans to have those suckers on shelves?

I always thought "Krondor: Tears of the Gods" was it and that Feist had simply concluded the series with the option of returning if he ever so desired. I always throught the Krondor series was poor compared to his other work. If I recall right, they were based originally on a computer game.

Feist has already started on the next Conclave of Shadows' book, "King of the Foxes" or something like that. Last time I checked on Amazon UK they had March of next year as a release date.

Additionally, Feist has co-authored a wonderful series called Legends of the Riftwar with various other authors. All three books in the series were really good especially the first book, "Honoured Enemy" and the last, "Jimmy the Hand."

It was nice to see a young Jimmy in action again before the weight of the world began to push on his shoulders.

To my knowlege, Feist will conclude the Conclave of Shadow series before turning to anything else.

In fact, there is five Krondor books slated, the final two being Krondor: the Crawler and Krondor: The Dark Mage. The next book in Conclave is indeed King of Foxes.

Again won't comment on the books...but even while Midkemia(sp) started out as a story hour, I do think it might be time for an update.

Thank you for the information and correction Eternalknight.

Ah, I still have Carse and Tulan although I was never able to get Jonril.

On the books co-written, does anyone have complete titles with ISBN?

Joe, the co-written books were only released in the UK as far as I can tell. If you go to amazon.co.uk you can find info on the isbn's. It seems as though Midkemia is far more popular in europe than in the states.
