Breaking News!

I have just learned, through the publisher's webpage, that the German translation of The Vacant Throne will be . . .

Die Kampferin

I have no idea what that means, and the "a" is supposed to have an umlaut over it, but I don't know how to do that. So apparently the Throne of Amenkor trilogy, in German, will be:

Die Assassine
Die Regentin and
Die Kampferin

Interesting. Now cover posted for the third book yet, but I'll post it as soon as I can. The second book, Die Regentin, is scheduled for release in January, and it looks like the third, Die Kampferin, is set for the end of June. The first two links are to the Amazon.de pages, and the third is for the publisher's page.

I ran your German bio page through the Google German to English translator, and it came up with Joshua Palmatier has a Ph.D. in mathematics. He was born in Pennsylvania but has lived in various parts of the USA. Today he has his principal residence in New York and teaches mathematics at a university in PA. "The Regent" is after "The Assassin" his second novel, while the second volume of the spirits throne trilogy.

The series name in German is "der Geisterthron-Trilogie" where Geist is spirit or ghost.

When did they move Oneonta to Pennsylvania? Did they move the entire county, or is there now an Oneonta-shaped hole in the middle of Otsego? I'd better warn my mother... she does her grocery shopping there.
