Hardcover/Paperback

Hello Jocelynn,

First off, I'm not much into these types of sites. I'm not much of a talker. I read the Anita Blake series by Laurell K. Hamilton and The Hallows series by Kim Harrison and that is how I came to find your books and I am truly awestruck with this series of yours. The characters are really well developed and the situations they find themselves in keep me riveted to my seat and looking forward to more!!

Anyway, I am a Hardcover reader myself and have read the first three books in Hardcover editions. I have looked everywhere I can think of when I heard of the release dates for your new books and I can only find Paperback editions.

So my questions are: 1. Will there be a hardcover release? 2. Where can I find the hardcover release (if there will be one)?

Thank you for your time and keep up the great work. I love reading your books.

Bill

Officially, there are no plans for a hardcover release. All the hardcover books have come through book clubs, such as the Science Fiction Book Club, making it a special release. They have not stepped forward yet to buy the next two books. If that changes and they plan the release the book, I will make an announcement as soon as I hear something.

Thanks for your interest!

I still look forward to the rest of the books in this series and if I have to read them in paperback I WILL. They are awesome. I hope someone will pick the books for Hardcover editions as my entire library is hardcover. I am a member of the Science Fiction Book Club you mentioned and as of yet I've heard no mention of it.

Thanks so much for your reply. I look forward to reading more from your great series. Thanks for the awesome adventures I get to tag along on!!

Well apparently The Science Fiction Book Club has picked up at least "Pray for Dawn" as a hardcover edition as I have been able to order it and it has supposedly been shipped as of 7-14-10. I would have read this in a paperback edition if necessary but I am glad I will be able to keep my hardcover collection intact. Now to see if they will pick up the next book "Wait for Dusk"!?! Depending on where I look, it seems this book will be released on my birthday, July 27th. Now if only I could get a hardcover copy on that date my birthday would be the most awesome day of the year!! Here's hoping/fingers AND toes crossed... that SFBC will release it so my birthday will ROCK!! Regardless, I am looking forward to reading "Pray for Dawn" if it actually shows up. Thank you Jocelynn Drake for writing these awesome books and thanks SFBC for my hardcovers!! Hopefully, "Wait for Dusk" is coming SFBC!?!?

As of this moment, SFBC has not purchased the rights to Wait for Dusk. I am hoping that they step up soon. I am sorry about the delay of the release of Pray for Dawn. Fingers are crossed about Wait for Dusk.
