- US paperback for The Piper's Son will have a different cover from the US hardcover. Cannot wait to see it!
- Froi of the Exiles is available on NetGalley for book reviewers. Here's your chance if you can't wait for the North American March release.
- The 'Lumatere Chronicles' will be published in Brazil! Awesome!
- Quintana of Charyn, the third book in the 'Lumatere Chronicles', will be released in Australia on October 2012. Yay! Less than a year away!
- Melina Marchetta might write another middle-grade novel featuring Danny Griggs, including a possible cameo from Jonah Griggs, for next year. Who else is excited!?
