Announcement

A while ago I told you I’d come to an agreement with a publisher, and promised more details to come. Since then I’ve been silent on the subject, and you’ve doubtless assumed that a) I’m delusional, or b) the deal had fallen through.

In fact it simply took a while to work out the details.

Yesterday I signed a contract with Nordskog Publishing of Ventura, California to publish the next volume in the Saga of Erling Skjalgsson. The book is titled (for now) West Oversea, and it ought to be released in very early 2009.

Nordskog is a new publishing house with only a handful of books on its list so far. I’ll be one of its first fiction authors. I hope that this will enable them to give my book more attention in terms of promotion and distribution than has sometimes been my experience in the past.

I’ll keep you posted as the process continues.

  1. Yes, Erling and Ailill, with a special guest appearance by Leif Eriksson himself, the most famous Viking ever!

    And for you saga buffs, we’ll also be seeing Snorri the Chieftain, Olaf Peacock, and the chief characters of Laxdaela and Eyrbyggja sagas.

  2. You know, I’ve been thinking of design new (mock) covers for Lars existing books. Appeal to the chick-lit market, literary readers, etc.

  3. Since I’ve only read Wolf Time in the free online edition (which is still available for download), I ordered a used copy of Year of The Warrior yesterday from abebooks.com.
