Since no one's commented on this yet, and it definitely deserves recognition.
Congrats on the achievement methos! Although I'm not a German reader, I think it's great that Lone Wolf is once again being made available in other languages. Good work.

Gah, I even put a nod to it in my last WW post, yet apparently forgot to come back and say congratulations on the thread!
Well done Methos, I hope this is the start of a long and beautiful partnership!

That is fantastic news - massive congratulations, Methos, and your co-workers! Brilliant stuff!
I may just get one - I don't really speak German (though I can count to a hundred!), but I love the language and I'd love to learn some; comparing an English FFtD with a German translation wouldn't half be a fun way to take a look at the language!
Great stuff!

I'm following the waves here. Nice to see this project concretizing for you. I remember having read in the past about this. I was surprise to see that the books wasn't translated in German language before. With 125 millions of speakers and being recognised in 11 countries around the world, that's not the least. Ich wünsche Ihnen einen guten Erfolg (or something like this)

You've said it, blazingsaddle. Even Malay translation of LW existed in the 90s, I can't believe that German version was not around before this...

Even Malay translation of LW existed in the 90s And the Czech one too! Must have been before 1995, at least the first six or 12 books.

Even Malay translation of LW existed in the 90s, I can't believe that German version was not around before this... actually the first 12 books were translated into german, but sadly not in such good quality nonetheless i became i huge fan (one of the reasons i was so eager to learn english in school was: i have heard there were more than 12 lw books but only in english ;D)-> thats what i call motivation

Soooo...I learnt a new word today: Ensaimer. Congratulations Methos, translating it's not an easy task.
