    That's cool. I don't think they ever did any SCE audiobooks in English.

    Sorry, is that new as in never before available on audiobook, or new as in Cross Cult would actually be resurrecting the line and commissioning new stories never before released in any format?

    New as in not translated into German before. Cross Cult stopped their SCE eBook line after "Breakdowns (#28) and their print collection line after the fourth one (#13-16), and good audio book sales will raise the chances of getting eBook #29 and so forth.

    Also the Cross Cult eBooks cost like three bucks, while the English ones are like five bucks. What happened there? That's two thirds of the price of a full novel with maybe a quarter of the content?

    It's Discovery. What a bummer. At least for me.

    Now I'm glad I stopped my Discovery read-through, as Dead Endless would have been the next one.

    Yes, it should have been me. My last guesses always were "Coda"

    Cross Cult also confirmed that they are planning to release the "Foundations" omnibus, and are looking for a place in the schedule.

    S&S raised the price. The English versions were $1.99 on original release.

    (I think. I paid $1.79 directly from S&S, so I'm assuming they were $1.99 and 10% off. Might've been higher priced with a higher discount.)

    Cover for The Returned (Rückkehr):

    Looks like a composite of the three eBook covers, with the Excalibur and red space thingie from the first part, the lower city from the second part and the tower to the right from the third part.

    Also, isn't this the wrong Excalibur?

    Yes. That is the original. Should be a Galaxy-class now.

    IIRC, it was the wrong Excalibur in the original releases too.
