Adversary Cycle Reprint Question - swandy - 02-01-2009
I have been a fan for many years and wish to re-read the Adversary Cycle prior to the "final" version of Nightworld being issued.
I read in the newsletter about the re-working of The Touch. How about recently issued versions of The Keep and The Tomb - were there significant changes in them also? How about the upcoming reprinting of Reborn and Reprisal?
Also, I have read previously that Nightworld will have significant revisions when it is re-released. I assume this will be around the time of the last (weeping) RJ novel? Will it's re-release be a paperback or hardcover?
I have not problems supporting one of my favorite authors by re-purchasing his books, but can someone comment on the changes?
Thanks
Steve

Nothing was changed in the storylines of the first 5 books of the Adversary Cycle. Prose was cleaned up, milieus and technologies were updated, but the stores remain as they were. No point in buying the reissues of those if you've read the older versions. Nightworld, however, is another story. Big changes there. Don't know whether it will be a hardcover or a paperback - won't be out till 2012.

Hi,
Thanks for the info (assuming I still have my old copies).
And that 2012 gives me plenty of time to re-read them.

I hope that at the end of Nightworld [SPOILER]Jack takes the sword and Glaeken gets some well deserved rest![/SPOILER]

Isn't 2012 the year the Mayan calendar ends? :eek:

Yeah, but not until December 21st. So don't delay in picking up a copy and reading it as soon as it comes out.
