hi guys
as you know, we are translating the new lw books into german
so far the first 2 books were published and many will follow
through our work, we have met jd few days ago and made an interview
the questions and answers can be read at
www.manticorverlag.de/forum/index.php?thema_id=109
of course we posted them in german, but i will give you a short summary
***********************spoiler****************
1: LW Movie
no tv-series but a 2 part movie will be filmed (part 1 will be finished christmas 2010) story of the movies will be book 1 and 2 with little changes (approved by jd)
2: books
lw will not die in book 32, but jd told us, many fans will be suprised by the ending (he was very cryptic on that part)
in book 32 we will see many know faces from previous stories and a huge battle
no plans for lw after book 32 are in store, but there are talks already about a new mini series in magnamund (like the greystar series)
3: differences of the new editions
book 1 of course as we already know, book 12 has some changes too and book 28 will have many chances (more than 50 new or drastically changed paragraphs)
4: further mini adventures
there we will see, bad guys and women as the main characters
5: greystar series
talks of a new edition were made but so far nothing is fixed
6: canon books and further stories
so far only the 2 series already know (lencia and agarash) will be published and should be realeased till christmas 2010
7: computer game
still in the working, plan is, to published it at the same time as the movies
8: is jd still playing rpg/tabletops or reading other "gamebooks"
he plays regulary tabletop games ( he is member in a tt club in england) rpg not that often any more (not enough time) so mostly at conventions
most fav. rpg: call of cuthulhu
jd has a strict rule: he is not reading any other gamebooks, because he donĀ“t want to be influenced by other works, magnamund should be and stay unique
ok that was the summary
have fun
