Bad News on the Ace Reissues
Wednesday, January 7th, 2009 05:11 pmWe have just heard from the Nice Editor Lady at Ace, who tells us that chain orders of Agent of Change and Conflict of Honors were so disappointing that Ace is canceling the program. The chains are declining to carry re-issues for the foreseeable future.
She also says, the Nice Editor Lady, that the economy sucks.
Remember! You -- yes, you! -- can get all of the Liaden Universe® novels from Baen Webscriptions. For those who prefer dead-tree, SRM Publisher does have some of the Ace mass market paperbacks in inventory. Before you spend $50+ for a tattered copy of an mmp edition of Plan B from ABEbooks, please check the SRM Publisher LJ:

Is this why LiveJournal went belly up for a few hours yesterday evening?
Date: 2009-01-08 08:03 pm (UTC)told me about it today. Well, pooh. I'm ordering a bunch for my bookshop, pronto-burgers.
Note - Agent of Change seems to be the only one Baker & Taylor refuse to admit to having.
You said Penguin's the distributor, though, right?
I have an account with Penguin...that'll do.
grumbling the bookseller's standard big publisher grumble,
