I know the discussion on book sizes has been done to death. But why on earth don't publishers realise that most readers want to purchase books that are part of a series/realm/saga etc. that are all the same size and the same cover style. I think I have 6 different sizes of book and 4 different cover styles across the Riftwar Cycle books that I started collecting 12ish years ago. And as you can imagine lining them up side by side in published order in silhouette look like a New York Skyline "It vexes me, I'm terrible vexed".
I would love for there to be a Limited Edition Complete Riftwar Cycle Box Set with all new covers and extras all signed by Ray and the artists etc. Regards Paul -----Original Message----- From: [email protected] [mailto:[email protected]] On Behalf Of Johns Email Sent: 25 February 2013 15:20 To: 'feistfans-l' Subject: RE: Jimmg and the Crawler out now in the UK!!!!! Debt of bones by Terry Goodkind was a different size to, I felt sick when I was at the register paying and I realized I was paying $30 for 150 pageish book not the same size as the rest of the series. -----Original Message----- From: [email protected] [mailto:[email protected]] On Behalf Of Marsh, Paul (CA-CIB) Sent: Monday, February 25, 2013 9:06 AM To: feistfans-l Subject: RE: Jimmg and the Crawler out now in the UK!!!!! Pete you're lucky, Its £14.99 at the Waterstones near London Wall. And your right it's a very odd size for a Hardback Novella and to be honest as much as I love reading Ray's work I can't bring myself to spend £15 on such a small book. I think I'll wait until it available on amazon and get it for £8.99 Regards Paul -----Original Message----- From: [email protected] [mailto:[email protected]] On Behalf Of e-mail pj.hope Sent: 23 February 2013 19:55 To: feistfans-l Subject: Jimmg and the Crawler out now in the UK!!!!! Jimmy and the Crawler is out now in the UK picked up a copy today £12.99 at Waterstones. One small compliant although it's a hard back its physical size isn't much bigger that a normal paperback copy so it will look a little odd next to the first three books in the series.
