Wolfe New Sun released?

This is the message as the crawl holds it, before anything here touched it. What the conversation shows has been through ingest: transfer encodings decoded, attachments dropped, quote markers repaired, and the archiver’s ? resolved into quotation marks and dashes. Those repairs are judgements and some of them are wrong, which is what this page is for. Email addresses are obscured here as they are everywhere else on the site, so it is before our repairs rather than byte for byte.

The four books of the original tetrology are being released as two Orb
trade editions called _Shadow & Claw_ and _Sword & Citadel_.  I have the
first of those (ISBN 0-312-89017-6); I don't know if the second is
available yet.

It's a nice-looking book, BTW; one of those "thick `n slick" covers,
acid-free paper, and a good job of font selection and layout, as far as my
relative ignorance about these things can tell.  It was $15, which is not a
bad deal when your run-of-the-mill (sorry about the pun) mass- market
paperback can cost $6 or more.
