Multiple Thick as Thieves excerpts in new paperback editions!

[mikkaybear]

I got my set of new editions and they are really, really lovely in person! But did anyone else notice they contain FOUR DIFFERENT THICK AS THIEVES EXCERPTS?!!

Do you think there's any specific order in which one should read them?

(If you're trying to avoid all spoilers, jsyk, the character glossary at the back of each book also includes some new

I noticed that as well. I just finished The Thief, and am working on the first 8 chapters of Queen, so I'm not sure if I want to read the excepts yet.

However, I would bet that you should read them in published order - 1-4.

Thanks, Mikkaybear.

I literally just walked in the door and found the UPS truck had dropped them off when I was gone. I opened them to find spoilers for TaT in the cast of characters list!

Someone didn’t think that through... I was just logging on to warn everyone, but you beat me to it.

So, FYI... The cast of characters list contains many of the new characters from TaT and minor plot details are revealed with one pretty major one as well. Reading it may spoil you depending on how sensitive you are to spoilers.

Feel free to use this post to discuss the excerpts, guys! Beware of spoilers below of course!

More thoughts on the new editions to come when I have more time. Right now, I’m off to read the new short stories!

Oh, and the excerpts should be read in the order of the books. It makes up most of the first chapter. :}

Darn, it's a shame that the excerpts give away much of the first chapter.

Sniff, sniff, sniffily sniff.

Something I'm just noticing for the first time about the new covers is the crown detail below MWT's name. Each one is unique and oh-so-pretty!
