I certainly hope so. It would be nice to get to the end of a series with all the issues looking the same instead of the cover design/format changing halfway through.
Why do publishers do that? :dontknow:

that's it. i'm buying the current borderlands version of nightworld and reading it, dammit! i'll buy the revised revised edition too, when that comes out in a couple of years

Hmmm, there are 2 versions of Nightworld in the den bookcase, mighty tempting.

When I was at a signing at the end of last month, Paul said he took out almost 8,000 words or so and then ended up putting in about another 10,000. So altogether there will be an additional 2,000 word over the original size, but 10,000 words of new material. So even if you read the original, there will be plenty to surprise you in the new version.

I'm really tempted and I'd look forward to a third revision. [SPOILER]After all, there's Weezy to add in. Unless Paul kills her off in the next book.[/SPOILER]

And you have resisted temptation, Brian? Damn, you've got willpower!
Here's a recollection...
Back in December 2006, guess it was, Paul had an event at B&N Lincoln Triangle. (At me own suggestion to the CRM, Oy'll hev yez know!) And I brought my whole collection to get signed.
"Hi, Paul! I'm Bluesman Mike."
"Hi, Blues! Always like to match a name with a face."
"I got this used NIGHTWORLD online, at bn.com. Cost twenty bucks, but--"
Paul was aghast. "Twenty bucks? For a used paperback? Mike, I would have sent you a copy!"
"It was worth every cent."
And it was. One of the best novels I've ever read.

I can't wait to see how Dr Wilson is gonna combine all the new members of RJ's world,ie The Lodge, the Kickers,Dormies and especially Weezy and The Lady with the current inhabitants of Nightworld. This is gonna be FUN!!!

I'm in a similar boat. I've read all RJ books (including first 2 young jack's), and adversary cycle save nightworld. Should I wait to read the revised version or just read it now?
Nightworld revised - Brian - 11-08-2010
I've picked both versions off the bookcase and tossed the idea around of reading them back to back. I used some self control and put them back in place. I'll wait for the last book, then read them.
