With the Del Rey Newsletter going out two days ago, the website has been receiving a lot of email asking similar questions. Here are some of those questions and their answers:

• Where can I find the short story Indomitable?
  Indomitable is the Shannara short story that takes place after the events of The Wishsong of Shannara, where Jair Ohmsford must discover a way to end the residual evil of the Ildatch—at perhaps a dark consequence to himself. It sets up the events of Dark Wraith of Shannara. The short story was released as part of a hardcover anthology titled Legends II, which also had a number of great short stories from some of the genre's best writers. A year after its release, Indomitable then appeared in the paperback Legends II: Dragon, Sword, and King. Ask your local bookstore for it or order it online from the various booksellers that make it available.


• Will Dark Wraith of Shannara be released in hardcover?
  As of this moment, Dark Wraith of Shannara won't be offered as a hardcover. Sometimes if a comic book series or a graphic novel trade paperback do well, a publisher will produce a hardcover. Until we know how Dark Wraith is going to perform, we won't have any indication if Del Rey is going to produce a hardcover or let a small press publisher take a crack at it.


• Will Terry be touring for the release of Dark Wraith of Shannara?
  He won't be. He is in the middle of writing the new Landover novel and can't be separated from his surrogate child—the new book. But he is doing two events for the graphic novel. Read the Events page for more information. And if you want a signed copy, visit The Signed Page for more information.

If you have any other questions, post them here under Comments.
