Just a brief update from Gollancz. Whilst The Way of Kings will be a simultaneous launch with the US edition in August 2010, the UK edition is being held back to February 2011<\/strong>, to give Gollancz a little more time to prepare the book for release, as they see it as a major title. Slightly disappointing news, but given that the sequel is probably not expected until 2012 or later (with Sanderson having to deliver the last two Wheel of Time books on a tight schedule), not too much of an issue.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

An odd decision, given Sanderson’s popularity and the ease at which books can be imported (I certainly know that it’s not uncommon, at least in the online world, for North Americans to import novels from the UK) with relative ease, thanks to the likes of Amazon.com and Chapters.ca. Still, Sanderson’s Mistborn<\/em> trilogy is still fresh on the shelves of UK bookstores, so it may not be so egregious a delay as it might seem to folk on my side of the pond.<\/p>\n

Given that Sanderson is still working on revisions (or, was, until a few days ago), one wonders if we might not see a similar delay from Tor Books<\/strong>.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
