I dont think its too much .. I think its prolly become a nuisance not worth the investment. He clearly had some auto delivery things set up that prolly had glitches .. plus he might be light on the newsy front

if truth were told

I have been unable to reach stephenrdonaldson.com for a couple of days now. Probably something like their domain lease lapsed. I would contact someone if I knew whom to contact.

From SRD news:

THE WAR WITHIN in paperback: bad news for US readers

Berkley, the publisher of THE WAR WITHIN (Book Two of "The Great God's War," has decided not to release the book in paperback. The sales of TWW in hardcover, and of SEVENTH DECIMATE in paperback, were ruinous; and Berkley is unwilling to spend even more money in a doomed cause. TWW will continue to be available in hardcover, at least for a while. It will be available as an ebook almost indefinitely. And it will be available as an audio book from Audible for the foreseeable future.

For me, this is what my son calls "a real boot to the head." But it won't stop me from working on Book Three, THE LAST REPOSITORY

BTW, I can't access it either, Wayfriend, but I've mentioned it. This is from the cache of the site.

Seems to be back up btw.

That sucks. I hope ebook sales were good, anyway. I'm one of the guilty parties these days.

And I do feel guilty about it. I'm all in favor of actual books.

The Kindle is just so nice though.

Wow, that sucks that sales have been so bad. I have the UK paperback so I'm all good - about 3 quarters through it. Am enjoying it and will drop in to the War Within forum when I've finished (am avoiding spoilers at the moment).

Posted: **Tue Aug 06, 2019 5:06 am**

Ah, that's good to know...thought it meant no paperbacks whatsoever. We usually get the UK editions here, so I should be able to get one. (I prefer not to do hardbacks where possible.)

Must buy these.
