Cover of the illustrated 35th anniversary edition of Wizard of the Pigeons by Megan Lindholm

Last December, GrimOak Press published a special illustrated edition of Wizard of the Pigeons to mark the book’s the 35th anniversary. The illustrations and cover art are by Tommy Arnold. All the publication details are in the wiki. There are 4 different versions of the book: an ebook and a trade hardcover are available through various booksellers, but there are also two limited double-signed editions which you can purchase through the GrimOak Press website. Honouring the book’s narrative, the publisher is donating 5 percent of the profits to the National Veterans Foundation . If you're looking for a signed copy of the trade hardcover, try The Signed Page or the University Bookstore.

New news on thePlenty.net

You may have noticed a lack of updates even though there hasn't been a lack of news to post about. This is partly due to one of the site scripts slowly getting more and more obsolete. It turned out to be impossible to replace it with a similar setup, so I've had to make some compromises and restructure some areas of the site. These things happen when you build on top of old things like the Buckkeep castle, and thePlenty.net has just turned 18!

Things will unfortunately look disorderly for a bit until I get the change to unify the layouts of all the different sections of the website, but for now it's functionality over form. The biggest change is the location of this news feed, which means the RSS feed also has a new address (all the old news will be kept in an archive, so those links will keep working). You can also follow thePlenty.net on social media, including on twitter, instagram, tumblr and pinterest (the RSS feed is also set up to post to facebook).

A series of round-up news posts about recent book releases will be posted soon.
