Pyr just announced the good news on their blog.
I'm glad to see Tchaikovsky series find such a good home with Pyr. Now I'll definitely have to give them a chance. I admired the covers a lot to the point I almost ordered them from the UK. Well now we can support Pyr. Again Pyr is releasing the first 3 quickly, which I have to laud them for.
We've just done a deal to bring Empire in Black and Gold, Dragonfly Falling, and Blood of the Mantis out here. All three books will be appearing from Pyr in early 2010, published in trade paperback in three consecutive months, March-April-May, so US readers can catch up with this dynamic series fast. Shadows of the Apt is a fantastic fantasy, with steampunk elements, that absolutely blew me away when I read it. Airships, steam trains, giant insects, fantastic characters, great action...
Pyr is releasing a lot of stuff that I am excited for. I'm really glad that someone is jumping on the train and bringing some of these books to the US.
ReplyDeleteI have to agree. Pyr is just charging to the front of speculative fiction, especially in quality. That Tchaikovsky series looks delightful.
