Caverns of Kalte Delayed

[hawkytom]

There will be a slight delay on Caverns of Kalte. This is mostly due to my impending holiday.

The good news is that once I return from foreign climes (end of October) everything is in place for layout and printing and Lone Wolf 3 should be shipping within the first week of November.

The current plan is Caverns of Kalte at the beginning of November and Chasm of Doom at the end of November. Then Shadow on the Sand before Christmas (or possibly slightly after, depending on the workloads of Joe and myself) and Kingdoms of Terror in January.

Hmmm, so it's nearing 20 days into November and as far as I can tell Caverns of Kalte still hasn't shipped: I guess it didn't make the "first week of November" shipping date...what is the new estimated delivery date? (plus the other 2 novels coming out with Book3, for us Mega-Deal customers)

Since Book 3 still hasn't been shipped...where does that leave Chasm of Doom, since it is suppose to be End of November? Which is nearing...or Book 5 for that matter? Before Christmas or after?

Whatever you guys have decided for the delivery date estimate of Book 3,4,5 and the other 2 featured novels from mega-deal: can you guys please give us an update!!

Hi guys,

Caverns of Kalte Sit-Rep!

It is already printed, with enough copies to satisfy all orders, and then some. It is just waiting to be trimmed and put into cases - about half a day's work or so.

The only issue is that we have had massive, and I mean _massive, orders for Cthulhutech and Return to the Road of Kings this week, which has had our guys fighting like blue heroes to keep up (they were in the office this morning, beavering away!).

We are hoping to wrap those orders up ASAP and start rolling out Caverns this week, with the first two novels hot on its tail.

Where does the paperbacks of FFTD and FOTW fit into the scheme of things - I'm presuming they havent been released and are queuing behind these other books?

We are currently revising our approach to the wider book shop market with these titles - however, yes, they are still in the chain.

So what does this mean to me over here in Germany? Can I order them via amazon.de maybe sometime?

Are you planning to allow translated versions of the books to appear?

Interestingly, I got an email from Amazon.co.uk advertising Fire on the Water the other day.

Well apparently some Italian company's published Italian language versions of the new editions already (the first two books). I thought Mongoose might've had exclusive rights but there's a thread about these italian books here somewhere.
