I’m guessing that most of the things in the new edition of the book will be the same, besides the switch from hard to soft cover. I’m very excited that Scholastic will be releasing the book to schools this way, because from the very beginning, when I was 14, for some reason Scholastic was the publisher that my mind equated with ‘good childrens books’. In fact, I remember calling their editors on the phone directly when I was about 12, trying to pitch old fantasy stories (something that at the time, I did not know was vastly against normal publishing rules!). So I can’t wait to see what they do with the book after all these years!

January also falls around the same time that we’ll release the title of Bran Hambric 2! That’s a few good things happening right at the beginning of the new year :D
