What's next for eBooks?

[ryan123450]

So once Slings and Arrows is finished, what comes next? I assume six more Corps of Engineers stories, but then what?

Also, when the CoE reprints get caught up, is it probable that Mere Anarchy and Slings and Arrows will get reprinted as well? (I know, I know, but I'm going to ask again.)

Thanks!

I'm curious myself, because so far no e-Books beyond Slings and Arrows were announced as far as I know (or have I just missed it?). I just hope they won't end the CoE line.

Could we possibly be getting a DS9 miniseries?

I'm surprised KRAD hasn't answered this yet. Maybe a new announcement is in the works.

If this is even being considered, I'd be very happy. Especially, if it is part of the DS9R. Count me in.

If it was DS9r related, I doubt it would be a big part of the plot since alot of people who read the books don't read the ebooks.

On the other hand they could use the popularity of that series as a draw. I know I'd be about a thousand times more likely to buy an ebook if it was the next story in the DS9 relaunch.

Or potentially annoy part of the reader base. I know I'd be damned annoyed if that happened.

I'd be annoyed but if a DS9 ebook was to be released I would probably have to succumb. Against my will of course but I would succumb! lol

Maybe, but Pocket seems keen to push the idea of ebooks, to them it's just another format that those of us who aren’t so keen on need to get over our pro-paper insecurities and get with the times... And it's not like it wouldn't end up in proper paper book a couple of years down the line anyways.

I'm not keen in ebooks, I tried one of the CoE books and didn't much like the reading off of a screen experience. However, if Pocket wanted to draw me in, then a DS9 relaunch series would be a guaranteed way to get me there.
