Probably something like that. jh Send a noteboard - 25/04/2010 08:38:42 PM
I saw them in every bookshop in New Zealand, and I see them here a lot too.

Maybe they're not readily available in the USA?


I see them in every bookstore that has an english section with sff, here... Not sure about the cycle of fire books he was talking about, though. So it is probably a publishing deal, the ties to the UK tends to be more important when it comes to books here than the ties to the US, unless you go to specialised stores.

See, I like these books, but looking back at it, the first book seems... underdeveloped. jh - 25/04/2010 08:45:27 PM 867 Views
Fair enough. Rebekah - 25/04/2010 08:48:53 PM 894 Views

Probably something like that. jh - 25/04/2010 08:38:42 PM 872 Views
That seems unlikely, she is American after all... Legolas - 25/04/2010 08:56:53 PM 824 Views
It is possible for an American not to sell well in her own country. *NM* Rebekah - 25/04/2010 09:12:36 PM 362 Views
Nah, there has been something strange with her US publisher. jh - 25/04/2010 09:24:28 PM 829 Views
