If you'd given me these numbers raw, well. You know me.<br /><br />It's a little late to hope for much from the US release. Orders will have been placed, print runs will have been curtailed to match estimates from the UK numbers. The rails are already set, it's just a matter of driving the train.Tim Akershttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01749644135364065658noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-16766354.post-31534802847538717202009-08-30T07:30:36.118-07:002009-08-30T07:30:36.118-07:00Well, damn.
You seem to be taking this a lot bet...Well, damn. <br /><br />You seem to be taking this a lot better than I would. First novels are baked from the fever dreams of the unpublished writer and marinated in in blood from the vein you opened to get the damned thing out. Or maybe that's just me. I really shouldn't have seen that Julia Child movie. But my condolences. And I wouldn't give up on the US edition yet. The fact that Solaris was dying as it came out is all that's needed to explain the book's failure to get out to the shelves. Once your Pyr books come out, Viridon is ripe for expansion.Daryl Gregoryhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03796637154226779541noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-16766354.post-83184717128557481642009-08-28T02:33:43.512-07:002009-08-28T02:33:43.512-07:00Really sorry to hear that...
If it helps in the s...Really sorry to hear that...<br /><br />If it helps in the slightest, I own the book and have read it... and absolutely loved it.<br />The story is as good as your very best short stories only far more in depth (as you'd expect)... Fantastic characters I cared about, a rollicking good adventure... and, most importantly for me, a world I wanted to see more of, hear more about, spend longer in.<br />Like I say, probably doesn't help at this stage but I wanted to let you know anyway.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
