Fortress Draconis Ebooks?

Waylander · 06-22-2014, 08:19 AM

Just wondering when the publisher will bring out the first two books of the Dragoncrown War Cycle by Michael A. Stackpole? The last two are available on Amazon.co.uk, but not the first two. This looks like one of this weird anomalies that used to happen all the time with ebooks, but is now thankfully rare and getting rarer. I was wondering if anyone knew anything? I really want to read the series, but don't know if there is any point in reading the last two books, as I probably won't have clue what is going on.

Haven't heard anything. As they were originally published in the early 2000's they may have fallen through the cracks.

I definitely wouldn't read When Dragons Rage & The Grand Crusade without having read the others first.

I haven't heard anything either. I bought at least one of his early books as an ebook directly from him when he was selling directly from his webpage as an experiment, but that was at least a few years ago. I don't really remember the particulars that well.

I didn't find the ending of that series all that satisfying. I'm not sure if the last book didn't do all that well, so he didn't finish the series, or if he actually finished the series, but left a lot of things up in the air.

The only people who can answer your question are the publishers. Have you asked them?

You might also want to check with Stackpole himself. He's got a website.
