My Domination of the World has Begun!
So, I've been sitting on this news for a LOOOOOOOONG time. For those that have been watching the blog for a while, this is the BIG NEWS that I wanted to announce ages ago but couldn't because I had to wait until it became actually, legally official. But that has now happened and so I can announce:
That's right! The German foreign language rights have been sold to Lubbe. After some rather awesome google-fu done by the bestest friend in the world,![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-userinfo.gif)
pbray, it appears that Lubbe is starting a new imprint and The Skewed Throne is one of the first fourteen books to be published starting in 2009. In her awesomeness, she also managed to run across what the cover will be:
So . . . completely different cover from the US version, eh? What do you think? Does it rock?
I'm completely and utterly stoked by this. Lubbe bought all three books in the "Throne of Amenkor" series, so The Cracked Throne and The Vacant Throne will be coming out in six-month intervals after the first one is released. Obviously they changed the title of The Skewed Throne to Die Assassine, so who knows what the titles of the second and third books will be.
In any case, I feel some kind of contest is warranted. I'm already running the comment contest for November over at![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-community.gif)
dawbooks, plus there's the "Spirit of Giving" Contest going on to benefit libraries across the nation (and I packaged up the first entries in that today so 12 lucky libraries will be receiving my books soon), so I'll have to think of something else to celebrate this news. Keep watch!
MY BOOKS WILL BE PUBLISHED IN GERMANY, IN GERMAN!!!!!!
