The Time of Contempt is finally coming to the US!

Was doing a random search for "Witcher" in the US Amazon site and saw that the next book, "The Time of Contempt", is going to be released in hard back edition on June 20th, and paperback on August 27th.

That made my day!

Yeah, it was supposed to come out sooner but I think it was postponed. I would be excited if the English translation of the Blood of Elves had turned out at least half decent.

They've given a release date for that book three times so far, and every time, it's been pushed back. Let's hope they actually release it this time!

Orbit Books is now the US publisher. (Since both Gollancz and Orbit belong to Hachette Livre, I suspect some internal reassignment involving territorial squabbles and "who wants this, one of you has to take it" has been going on and causing delays.)

It may be available in E-book as early as July 1: http://www.hachettebookgroup.com/titles/andrzej-sapkowski/the-time-of-contempt/9780316219143/

The print edition is still end of August. They have also given a September 1 date for Baptism of Fire. I don't know what confidence to place in that date.

Nice, hopefully it actually releases on that date. I have the fan translation doc on my comp but would prefer reading the actual book.
