German translation of Dragon Keeper

[finella]

I don't know, if it is the right place for the news, but I didn't find a better one.

YES !!! I just found the information, that Dragon Keeper will be published in german translation in March 2012 (I was looking for that info for quite a while). The translation of Dragon Haven is designed, without a date.

Bad news – no hardcover, only paperback and the cover is absolutely dreadful !!! The publisher Heyne (Randomhouse) has adapted the covers of the latest german edition of the Farseer Trilogy (mysterious man in a wide red cape, which is blown by the wind. Seems to be a theme, which is very popular for fantasy at the moment. Here in Germany you find it on every second book in miscelleneous variations.) When I think of the wonderful dutch cover, or the UK one, which somehow refers to Alise’s drawings, I think, the german edition is a real shame !!!

But nevertheless I’m glad that they will be translatet. And I certainly will buy them. They are quite o.k. for the beach. I’m double glad, that I own the UK-hardcovers.
