Uncle Hugo’s Science Fiction Bookstore in Minneapolis will once again kindly be taking preorders for signed and/or personalized copies of ACCEPTING THE LANCE.

We’ve just arranged to also have signed copies of two Liaden novelettes in trade paperback, Adventures in the Liaden Universe #28: Fortune’s Favor ($8.00, expected by mid-September) and Adventures in the Liaden Universe #29: Shout of Honor ($10.00, expected by mid-September). These will be signed but not personalized. If you wish to order all 3 Liaden books, we can either send the trade paperbacks right away (with a $6.00 shipping charge) and the hardcover in December (with another $6.00 shipping charge), or we can hold them all until December (and only have a single $6.00 shipping charge). If you are ordering all 3 Liaden books, please let us know in the Order Comments section during checkout if you want one shipment or two shipments.

PUBLICATION ACCEPTING THE LANCE
ACCEPTING THE LANCE will be published in hardcover and ebook editions on December 3. There will be an audiobook edition, narrated by Eileen Stevens. You may pre-order the hardcover edition from the bookseller of your choice. Because of Baen’s tradition of selling eARCs prior to the publication date, you may not preorder the final ebook edition.

A short story in support of . . .Lance will be published to Baen.com in mid-November, tentative title is: “A Visit to the Galaxy Ballroom.”

Advance praise for Lee and Miller’s Accepting the Lance:
ACCEPTING THE LANCE is a tour de force! So many threads woven, so many pieces moved on the board, old and new friends met, this book is an extraordinary installment in a brilliant series. I stayed up till 3 a.m. reading it and I have zero regrets. An incredible ride of a book!

    Before I spend huge amounts of $$$ for LIADEN UNIVERSE COMPANION VOLUME ONE
    can you put a Table of Contents someplace?

    If the stories are already collected in CONSTELLAIION volumes then I can save a few trees.

    Thank you,
    Irene
