Hi Shannara Fans,
A bit of bad news here but it shouldn’t cause a serious problem.
The Druid of Shannara Special Editions will not go up for preorder on The Signed Page on February 1st as originally planned. There are a number of reasons for this. The big reason: I haven’t received final bindery quotes yet. I need those in order to know the final pricing of the books. The second reason: I’ve been busy editing my new novel, The King-Killing Queen, and I’m behind on my delivery deadline. It means I haven’t had the time to devote to social media assets, product pages for the books, and creating images of the merchandise items we’ll have. All important things, to be sure.
But the third reason is the most interesting: It looks like Terry and I may be going to Emerald City Comic Con the first weekend of March. If they give us a Spotlight Panel, we will bring a slideshow of artwork from The Druid of ShannaraSpecial Editions as well as The King-Killing Queen. It should make for a great panel. And of course, we will video it—either live or taped. For all to watch.
I know may of you were looking forward to February 1st. I know I was. But the extra time will help get all elements of the book ready for your full enjoyment.
If you have any questions, I’m around.
Shawn
