At last! We’ve sent the nearly 1200 page, two volume limited edition of George R. R. Martin’s A Storm of Swords to the printer. ASoS contains nearly 70 black and white illustrations by Charles Vess, including endpapers, full page and copious vignettes, plus four full-color, full page paintings. ASoS will truly be a book for those who love epic tales, and beautiful books. This one half killed everyone involved, but we think the results will be worth it.

At this point, we expect to have finished books in our offices in 4-5 weeks, at which time it will take 4-5 weeks beyond that to have the slipcases made. Come August, it’s going to be a great time to be a George R. R. Martin fan!
