An Inheritance of Magic now has its German language release!
And it’s made Der Spiegel’s Top 10 bestseller list, which is something I’m very happy with! It’s the first time I’ve ever had this happen at the beginning of a series, as opposed to 8 or 9 books in.
Technically the book actually came out a couple of weeks ago, on March 19th. But I wanted to include the Top 10 detail in this post, and my German publishers asked me to hold off on that until the Spiegel list was made public.
The German translation of Book 2 will be coming out this autumn, in October. My German publishers, Blanvalet, have been working through my backlog for 5 years now, and they’re just now finally catching up, so once Book 3 in the Inheritance of Magic series is translated too, my German readers will (at last) be on par with my English ones. Of course that also means that they’ll have to get used to 12-month wait times for each new book rather than 6-month ones, but at least they get to know they’re up to date?
Congratulations! Very good (and well-deserved) news indeed!
If your German readers enjoy your books (both series) as much as I have they are in for a real treat!
Congratulations!!!
Wonderful! Congrats!
