And as for the topic of Silver Phoenix, I've received word that Silver Phoenix is in fact NOT REMAINDERED, so could you please spread the word? Telling people to wait for the paperback is fine for those with tight budgets but for those who have more spending cash, buying the hardcover now would be more helpful. Not only because it's the cover with the Chinese heroine on it but also for Cindy because hardcover editions typically have a higher royalty rate. And the more money that can go towards her advance, the more chance she has of getting picked up for another contract. Plus, if sales of the hardcover remain steady -- it doesn't have to be a mad rush or anything (though that'd be awesome, don't get me wrong) but a copy or two sold every few days -- that'll encourage online retailers to keep it in stock longer. It'd be nice to see it stay in stock until the end of the year.
