New Editions for Wheel of Time



It's not exactly new news, but The Wheel of Time series is being re-released in paperback.

Some of the covers are better than Darrell K. Sweet's art, some are worse, but the series will be re-issued. Heck, some of the books already have been.

They are in paperback (trade actually, the size is between 'mass market' and...well, the one that is the same size of  hardcover but paperback instead.) The books 'open' better, are larger (which is good for the maps etc.) So if you want a decent copy, go for these. Good format for new readers. If you want the books cheap, or could care less about format, there's the 'reg' editions that are standard or the e-book versions.

Not all the books are out yet in this new format. As such, I will update this post once they are given a date, ISBN, etc. 

Here's the ISBNs for the books, so use these to search for them:

 UPDATE Oct. 1 2012: details added for 'Crown of Swords'

 UPDATE March 2013 : details added for 'Path of Daggers'.

UPDATE May 2013: details added for 'Winter's Heart'

 UPDATE October 2013: details added for 'Crossroads of Twilight'

UPDATE Jan 2014: details added for 'Knife of Dreams'

 UPDATE June 2014: details added for 'The Gathering Storm' 

 UPDATE September 2014: details added for 'Towers of Midnight'

Final UPDATE January 2015: details added for 'Memory of Light'

Actual Final Update: January 2020: details added for 'The Companion' and for 'New Spring.' Now the collection will be completed.

All books in the series now have ISBN's and publication dates.

Just got this now, wow! Maybe I should turn on comment notification or something. Anyway, no problem Anoym! Hop you're enjoying the series! It's not perfect, I admit, and shows its fault at times, but its overall enjoyable and 'fun'. Quite a good tribute to Tolkien :P
I'll keep posting ISBN info & dates. Keep an eye on *this* post and the blog itself.

Do you know if New Spring will come out like this? And if so is it really going to be last?

Sorry for the delay!

As of now, there is no info in regards to "New Spring".

However, it exists as a short story in the "Legends" anthology, and as a graphic novel!

I just posted the info for the final book, A Memory of Light, but I will keep my eyes open - though it seems unlikely at this point.

The Tolkien Signature Paperback Collection: Master Listing

Image
  Recently, HarperCollins has been re-issuing most of the Tolkien titles in a new paperback style. Since that a vast majority of these share ISBNs with other covers, eventually the older covers will be replaced with the new. I wanted to provide head's up for that. If ordered via Amazon UK, Blackwell's, or Waterstones, you'll very likely have the newer/Signature cover. If possible, it may be best to actually visit  the bookstore so you can see which one they actually have on their shelves.   This post is a Master Post, collecting ISBNs of the titles released in this style. I have made them into 'groups' or 'sets' for ease of reference, as well as possibly assist in purchasing them, if one were to get more than one book at once. Over the course of time, this post will get updated. Once a new title comes to this format, I'll do a separate blog post focusing on that title; and provide it's ISBN, cover art, and description. Enough of these have come out t...

An Update

So I bet you're wondering how The Saga of Kalvel is coming.  It's going well, but slow. I'm not putting into as much time writing the series as I'd like. It's still being thought of in my head, and I'm only able to get to it part time, but I'm still planning and writing at the same time. This weekend I'm hoping to binge through some.  I'm working on the third chapter for one character, and would like to start the first chapter for another character. I begun as early as Dec. 2011, and my deadline is August of 2016, but so far I have approx about 40 completed manuscript pages that I'm thinking of going back to until the first draft is completely done.  Now. That's manuscript pages.  If I were total everything I'd ever written about Kalvel, it would be closer to around 100 (give or takr about 15 either direction, some things are in various states.) I've said before and again that the most difficult vo...
