I think all the ML books are all now in reprint - or will be by April 2011 according to Amazon. Looking forward to these.

I am looking for the Words like coin short story.

Well, Blushing the A fantasy medley is too expensive for me (I could buy the City of dragon three and a half times from it), and I'm wondering if the story appears in some other anthology?

Those anthology thingies certainly are expensive. I've looked at that one and also those that contain George RR Martin's Dunk and Egg stories. All cost far more than my budget will allow. Down

No, KekPafrany, Words Like Coins can only be found in A Fantasy Medley and I can fully see why most would not be in your price-range. Down

I own it as I bought it when it was first released, and for not very much money either. I have since lent it out to a fellow Aussie mate from Robin's Newsgroup (and am anxiously, and I do mean anxiously as I think about it every day, hoping I get it back soon...if I don't, I thankfully know where this friend both lives and works, and I warned her of the same before I sent the book! P *waves* Hi Lou! Wink ). I don't care about its dollar worth. I love the Words Like Coins story!

I actually also need it so that I can complete my WLC-related articles in the wiki. Surrender

Thank you.

Well, it seems to me, I can only hope that there will be some other anthology in the future.

you're not alone there... 'thul have wanted to read that story for a long time...


Note:
when 'thul write in all italics, it is the lord of the three realms within 'thul speaking. A fairly egoistical, but also somewhat simple-minded dragon. Do not take such posts at face value.

Martin is currently writing a fourth story in the Dunk&Egg series. When this is finished, the plan is to release a book with the first four stories collected.

Anyway, here are some cheap(ish) versions of the anthologies with the first D&E stories.
The hedge knight: http://www.amazon.co.uk/Legends-Discworl..._1?ie=UTF8&qid=1336469694&sr=8-1
The sworn sword: http://www.amazon.co.uk/Legends-II-Drago..._0?ie=UTF8&qid=1336469829&sr=1-2
The mystery knight: http://www.amazon.co.uk/Warriors-1-Georg..._4?s=books&ie=UTF8&qid=1336469829&sr=1-4

I'm lucky enough to have the hardcover version of all three anthologies Smiling

Look what I have found, I hope I help with it:

Ebook is more than fine to me Dance

I downloaded the sample and it works in my reader. The title format is ungainly, but everything seems fine, I will buy it.

Nice spotting, KekPafrany!!! Slurp Grouphug Dance

Hobb fans the world over will be pleased! Clapping

I hope you all enjoy it...I know I love it!
I just tried to purchase it (despite the fact that I own the book already) but it's only available for those with a US billing address. Down
