Jussi Posted January 6, 2012 Share Posted January 6, 2012 New update from J.V. Jones:Ok, I admit it. It's been a long time since the site received any updates. I've been really busy completing Book V of The Sword of Shadows and everything else has been on the backburner. I plan to turn this around soon, starting with regular posts to the journal. Thank you for your patience, JVhttp://www.jvj.com/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Calibandar Posted January 7, 2012 Share Posted January 7, 2012 It's funny, I really enjoyed reading her journal back in 2010 when she posted frequently. She leads a very interesting life and some interests overlap with things I am intrigued by as well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Werthead Posted January 8, 2012 Author Share Posted January 8, 2012 Interesting. It looks like Blood of Dragons by Hobb and Cold Days by Butcher have been put back to early 2013. Blood is definite, but Cold Days has only been moved on Amazon. No word on Butcher's website.I've heard that Kearney's Spartacus novel has also indefinitely been delayed, but Kings of Morning and the Sea-Beggars omnibus are still both on-schedule for 2012.

Calibandar Posted January 9, 2012 Share Posted January 9, 2012 There was an update on Abercrombie's blog as well. His output in 2011 has been substantially less than expected, two-thirds of the first draft are done, with quite a bit of work still ahead. No word from Joe that the September release date cannot be met though.Also nothing yet from Bakker. I guess he will have to finish in the next 3 months in order for it to still be published this year. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Werthead Posted January 29, 2012 Author Share Posted January 29, 2012 Martin wrote last year:I wonder what happened. I was looking forward Martin's story.I think you answered your own question. If he was way behind schedule, plus he had a lot of other things on his plate as well, it's possible he just missed the window for the book. It could still show up, maybe in the paperback edition or maybe online. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Garlan the Gallant Posted January 29, 2012 Share Posted January 29, 2012 A few quick questions:1) What's the deal with "Triumff: The Double Falsehood" by Dan Abnett? Is it ever going to come out?2) Why is Amazon.com listing "Blood of Dragons" by Robin Hobb as coming out in July of 2012? I thought this book was slated to come out in 2013.3) When is "Ransom City" by Felix Gilman supposed to come out? 2012 or 2013?4) What is the ETA on the "Dangerous Women" anthology and "The World of Ice and Fire"?5) Also, what is the ETA on:a. "Unwrapped Sky" by Rjurik Davidsonb. "So Deep a Malice" by John Gwynnec. The new finished collection of "The Sea Beggars" by Paul KearneyNone of those three (a,b,c) are listed on Amazon UK or .com.Thanks! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Werthead Posted January 29, 2012 Author Share Posted January 29, 2012 1) What's the deal with "Triumff: The Double Falsehood" by Dan Abnett? Is it ever going to come out?Dan had a serious medical condition appear without warning about a year and a half ago (late-onset epilepsy, I believe) which had a serious knock-on effect on all the books he was writing at the time. That's why Triumff 2 has been delayed so much. I don't know what the current ETA is on it. He's on Twitter and Facebook, so it should be easy enough to ask. 2) Why is Amazon.com listing "Blood of Dragons" by Robin Hobb as coming out in July of 2012? I thought this book was slated to come out in 2013.The 3rd one is out shortly, the 4th one next year. Originally they were supposed to come out right after one another, so that edition may not have been updated yet on Amazon. 4) What is the ETA on the "Dangerous Women" anthology and "The World of Ice and Fire"?I don't believe either have a hard date beyond '2012' for the former. GRRM said he wanted to hand in the final version of the worldbook before New Year's, which indicated a 2012 release (bearing in mind the market for this kind of big, coffee-table companion book, probably Christmas 2012). We don't have confirmation that happened, so who knows? I asked Ran about the situation on the World Book forum.c. The new finished collection of "The Sea Beggars" by Paul KearneyPaul's finishing this off now. I think the tentative plan is for it to come out at the end of 2012.

Calibandar Posted January 29, 2012 Share Posted January 29, 2012 3) When is "Ransom City" by Felix Gilman supposed to come out? 2012 or 2013?August 2012 as per Locus Magazine. We will see in a month or so when the TOR listings on Amazon for the second half of the year go up.5) Also, what is the ETA on:a. "Unwrapped Sky" by Rjurik Davidsonb. "So Deep a Malice" by John GwynneSo Deep a Malice is coming out in December 2012, as per the recent update by Gwynne's agent, John Jarrold. This confirms the rumour that Macmilland had the book pushed back.Unwrapped Sky has been delayed to 2013 from what I read. It is indeed taking very long for that to get published.

Padraig Posted February 6, 2012 Share Posted February 6, 2012 That's very interesting. Thanks. GRRM did say he wanted the book finished by the close of 2011, so it seems that they managed that or were very close. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Calibandar Posted February 6, 2012 Share Posted February 6, 2012 In some less exciting news, Justin Cronin's The Twelve has been taken off Amazon.com again, and the UK publisher also does not have a listing on their site for the UK version.
