Thanks sweetpea. I have audio versions of the Pendragon Cycle, but I'm actually looking for ebook versions for King Raven.

The Hunt Continues......

Well, I only wanted to point out, that they do have Hood and Tuck. That is part 1 and 3. What happened to part 2!

I see this iften. MORE often I see only part 1. i spose they are hoping you to purchase the pbooks to finish the story.

Won't work for me though.

That's one of my pet peeves. What I find is books 2 and 3 in a series, and no book 1!

An update for any who are interested!!

I contacted Thomas Nelson Publishing again today about the King Raven series, and surprisingly I head back only a few hours later. This is what I received.

We expect an ePub version of Hood to be available at the online ebook stores for Sony and B&N shortly after Christmas.

Best regards,

So, yeah, it's been 6 months of agonizing.. agony..waiting for this series to come out so that I can enjoy it. It's supposedly just around the corner!!

That's exciting. I enjoyed Hood and look forward to the rest of the series to see light of day in ePub.

I actually saw the TPBs in B/N the other day and considered purchasing them for myself as a present to keep in my library and display...their covers are quite pretty. =)

It looks like the Sony store now has Scarlet and Tuck available, but I could not find Hood listed. Since the Sony store is now epub can the books be read on other epub devices? Will ADE take care of the DRM for other devices?

griffonwing · 12-28-2009, 03:43 PM

I have seen both Scarlet and Tuck ebooks in various places, but never Hood. I assume Amazon had a deal that they would be the sole distributor of the first book in the series for the first year or so of it's e-release, which truly sucks if all 3 books hit the e-market at the same time.

I have even scoured the darknet, but still no Hood, except for a spanish version. Hopefully it will not be too much longer.

Just read the Hood sample, it seems really good. I've never read any Lawhead before and I'm dying to! Is the Pendragon cycle good as well? I ask because it's one of my pet peeves to usually just read the original (Le Morte D'Arthur) of a story but Lawhead seems to have taken a different take to it.

kenm · 12-30-2009, 01:15 AM

Yes the Pendragon cycle is a great read, it got me hooked on Lawhead's books. It is a totally new take on the King Arthur legend. At least to me anyway.

Had to reply back here. I got a Borders card for the holidays. Found the King Raven trilogy in a TPB slipcase for 29.99USD at Borders. I was so excited. Scooped it up immediately.

Now to blow my AMZN giftcard on those darned kindle editions
