Release dates of the new chronicles

Post by **safetyjedi** » Tue May 10, 2005 3:47 pm

Does anyone else wonder why the release dates for the upcoming novels are so far away? I myself am hungry for the next book already and it won't be released until 2007!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

SRD is a notoriously slow writer - he has 3 years to write each book as part of his contract.

Novels don't grow on trees.

Well wait, technically they do...

BTW - Welcome to the Watch! I'm going way out on a limb here, but I suspect you might like the Star Wars thread located in the Library forum. Enjoy!

I guess I shouldn't complain, this gives me time to read all of them again. I also picked up a copy of Gilden Fire on ebay just recently and I can add that in as well. ...there is wild magic in every rock

2007!?! Oh my god............ mind you, waited 20 odd years for Runes so can wait another couple of years I guess!

Chew on this though...

Book 2 in 2007

Book 3 in 2010

and finally the grand conclusion in 2013

(give or take a year)

Imagine how old you'll be when you get to experience the final chapters of the Chronicles.

last chapters in 2013? christ I'll be 38! I wonder if in that time frame a film will finally be made, which would delay any further writing?

mind you, it's that damn good, it is worth the wait!

2013? hellfire and bloody damnation, ill be 25

what a waste of 7 years, reading tc over and over again...
i should be doing something constructive

- EDIT -

Don't worry - SRD has promised to live forever.

thank the almighty alpha

Post by **nealo** » Wed May 18, 2005 4:55 pm

I agree, can you imagine how bad it would be if SRD unfortunately passed away before finishing his epic? We'd get some inferior writer trying to finish it off, maybe a relative or his editor or something!

Christopher Donaldson, perhaps?

Eck, don't even speak such evil.

A lot of people here are already older than 38.

In 2013 I will be 49.

And, with luck, already retired from my lifetime of government service.

Oh no! By then I'd be 28! How horrible (:LOLS:)
