Tumak Wrote:Hmmm. How would you characterize the revisions to THE TOMB? Minor revisions/touchups? If the revisions are merely along the lines of deleting all references to Betamax and replacing them with TiVo, then I probably don't need to upgrade that one.
It seems the NIGHTWORLD revision must include more substantial changes that necessitate an upgrade, given the course of the RJ series. I assumed THE TOMB did as well, but perhaps not...
I'd say the revisions to The Tomb are indeed minor. There are no changes in the primary plot.
Nightworld changes are quite substantial. They particularly are changes that reference characters and events from the RJ books that did not exist when Nightworld was first written. Obviously, there are changes in Jack's awareness of the Otherness and so forth. The revised Nightworld should
not be read without at least having read Harbingers first. If you can stand to wait, then the best bet is to wait until you have read all the RJ books leading up to Nightworld, including those yet to be published.
Hope this helps.
