OK, thanks Nekokami. The US publisher might not hold rights, but someone does. I guess it depends on the deal you make when you get it published. I still say pick one of those books and see if the international sales rights have actually been granted by the copyright holder (whoever that might be). I know that national laws may be different in each country, but there are treaties and the WTO to handle those things. Whether or not those agreements are ever enforced is another matter.
