I don't read electronically - they're all available in print, now..! *g*
Point of Hopes and Point of Dreams have been available in print for donkey's years (well, PoH says 1995, and PoD says 2002), and PoK is the newest in the series - but the two older books have also been re-released in new versions (the pics I posted) here. PoD's new version isn't available yet - but you can still get the original version second hand. In print! *g*
I haven't bought the new one yet (I've had copies of the first two for years) because I wanted to get all three with the lovely new covers and read them in sequence.
I can't seem to find out when the new Point of Dreams is going to be published though, and I can't find it on any of the usual book sites. Help!!
Point of Dreams isn't out for a whilst yet, I think... mescotthad the date up on her lj... erm... Oooh!
The tentative release schedule from Lethe is: Point of Hopes re-released this fall, then Point of Knives, the new novella - in which tentative courtship is interrupted by murder - in the spring of 2012. Point of Dreams will be re-released over the summer, and then Fairs' Point will be out November of 2012. she says here! That means Fair's Point might not be as far away as I've been dreading... (although a review from June 2012 at Tor Press says PoD will be out this Fall, so it does look like it's all slipped back a little - waaah!... Oh, and another site says October 2012 for PoD - double-waaaah!)
I love these books and have reread them more than once. Just look at that new cover for Point of Dreams! Lovely. Now I want that cover as well as my beloved original one. My only real disappointment with Point of Knives is that it's far too short. Like you, I want more! Unfortunately, I couldn't read behind your cut for some reason.
I didn't actually use a cut, which might be why it didn't work...? *g* I did post a few links, and one of them takes you to my astreiant tags list, which has this post at the top - fooled me when I checked it myself... *g*
They are the most gorgeous books, aren't they - if only PoK was three times as long... I'd forgotten that Fair's Point is already half-planned though... Re-checking mescott it was originally scheduled for publication in autumn this year, but it looks like the re-publication of PoD has slipped back to October now, so... *is impatient*
The fic listed at astreiant is beautifully done though - all by writers who've captured just the Astreiant rhythm... and you know there's a cut-snippet from PoD up there too, right? (It used to be on the sadly-defunct Pointsmen website...) It's still not enough though, is it... *g*
Funnily enough, I just started reading PoK yesterday! It's lovely to be back in this beautifully crafted universe... I'd forgotten a lot of its quirks and features, but they're all coming back to me as I read. Good news there might be more after this one, too!
Oh, there's absolutely supposed to be more - I'm sure I remember hearing that there was a story planned for each of the (9?) Points... Fair's Point is next - though it was originally supposed to be out in autumn, and it looks like PoD has been pushed back to October (if we can believe the websites... perhaps we should ask mescott for an update... *g*
Aren't they just... yes, beautifully crafted, and with wonderful quirks and features! My favourite so far is ghost-tide, though...
