[QUOTE="neg, post: 1763014, member: 4431"] [b]Tor/Erikson/Me[/b] Nice to see Erikson getting some posts on my favorite boards. I work as a salesperson for Tor and all of the publishers associated with the parent company. Let me see if I can give you some information that might be useful: Comparisons to the Black Company are very apt. I am reading Glen Cook's series right now. Gardens of the Moon in mass market in January '05, look for it very late in December. It contains a teaser to Deadhouse Gates, Book 2. If you are a hardcover junky, it has been marked down and now is the time to get it at chain bookstores like Barnes and Nobles, Borders, Hastings, Books a Million, and Media Play. If you would be so kind to hunt down your local Media Play and purchase it there, I would be ever so greatful as I handle that account. Book 2 Deadhouse Gates is being published in two different and simultaneous formats. Hardcover Deadhouse Gates ISBN 0765310023 $25.95. Should hit the streets on 2/2/05. May be difficult to find because of the other version we are publishing, so you might want to special order it. Tradepaper of Deahouse Gates ISBN 0765314290 $14.95. Should hit the streets on 2/2/05 and will definitely be the choice format stocked and promoted at most bookstores. You can probably hunt down a discount copy early after publication. I know Media Play will have it 20% off. I am sure other retailers will have it discounted as well, just not sure who. Tor felt they didn't get the audience they wanted on the first book, so they did a wise and gutsy play and they are hoping it will pay off. They heavily markdowned the hardcover of book 1 to build the readership and they will publish the next book in a cheaper trade paper edition to further build readership. They are looking to publish a new Erikson every nine months at this point. Hope this was helpful, let me know if there are any questions. I might be able to answer them. -neg [/QUOTE]
