PS Publishing has announced that a new Korbal Broach and Bauchelain novel is on the way, called The Lees of Laughter's End. It is expected in 2007.

According to this guy, who has received a newsletter from PS, the story takes place after the events of Blood Follows.

All the novellas have limited print runs, they're not released mass-market (yet). That said, if you have any half decent book stores around there you should be able to get them to order them for you...

Yay! PS are also doing a limited edition collection of all three short stories in one boxed set! The collective title is Bauchelain and Korbal Broach: The Collected Stories Volume One.

Volume One? Sounds like there could be more... [/hopefull optimism]

@Brood:
You'd be amazed how much book stores even private ones can't order anything. If it's only a U.K. release and the store doesn't have the right supplier you're screwed.
I had to wait for the U.S. re-release of Blood Follows and Healthy Dead to get my copies. That made me incredibly angry.
I know that PS is British but with the Commonwealth and the fact that Erikson and Esslemont are Canadian, you'd think that somehow we'd be able to get his books, but you'd be wrong.

I just contacted PS and they are sending me the books. I assume I am paying more, just like I did with BH, but it is still worth it. You just have to deal directly with the publisher.

Aye, it does all seem a bit stupid really. That said, I only got the US edition of Blood Follows. Nightshade did an excellent job with them.

Guys,

Peter from PS Publishing assured me that I would have a copy of THE LEES OF LAUGHTER'S END up for grabs on the blog around the time of the novella's release date. Don't know which version he'll be supplying for the giveaway, though.

Stay tuned for more details!

P. S. And just in case you didn't know, I will also have copies of both REAPER'S GALE and NIGHT OF KNIVES up for grabs!

COPIES, REAPERS GALE, UP FOR GRABS

Oh, you are absolutely telling us when you run this competition.

Hello, soldiers, look at your mage, now back to me, now back at your mage, now back to me. Sadly, he isn’t me, but if he stopped being an unascended mortal and switched to Sole Spice, he could smell like he’s me. Look down, back up, where are you? You’re in a warren with the High Mage your cadre mage could smell like. What’s in your hand, back at me. I have it, it’s an acorn with two gates to that realm you love. Look again, the acorn is now otataral. Anything is possible when your mage smells like Sole Spice and not a Bole brother. I’m on a quorl.

No worries!

I'm also trying to work out a way that would allow everyone to get his hands on a signed copy of REAPER'S GALE and/or NIGHT OF KNIVES for the normal cover price or close to it. I've already talked with Neil at Clarkesworld, and now it's up to Transworld to see if what I'm suggesting is within the realm of possibilities.

Will keep you posted!

I will temporarily declare a moratorium on my demand for your brainz on this basis.

Peter has replied stating he will send out the book soon, as it is currently being printed as we speak...

Also, I'm sure that the "Lees" is a body of water thats metioned in Blood Follows?

Ordered copies for cauthon and myself yesterday. And while I was at it I saw that SE is contributing a story in the Postscripts issue 10 so I ordered a copy of that one as well.

Pat, that would be a fine competition indeed
