It's so exciting. Every time I see that cover I get all tingly. Can't imagine what it does to you!!!

Also, don't forget to tell your blog people about the minicon on the weekend!

When I got up this morning, it was at 11,000 something, Hrugaar…I am not sure I’ll believe those rankings until they settle down a bit.

I bought a copy of The Tainted from Kinokuniya in KLCC, and possibly my copy of The Aware last year, too. The Mirage Makers books I actually ordered online from galaxy bookshop in Sydney - yes, I know that's expensive when I live on the other side of the world, but Glenda's books are worth it. :o)

At the time of writing this comment, the amazon.co.uk sales rank for the UK Heart of the Mirage has shot up from c275,000 to 62,496 and amazon only have five copies left in stock. Yay! Go Glenda!

Thanks Mumsie!

Hisham, Kinokuniya and MPH midvalley and Bangsar all had copies of the US edition of the Isles of Glory trilogy last year. They would probably get them in for you, at no extra cost, if you ordered them. The ISBN numbers are The Aware 0441012779; Gilfeather 0441013481; The Tainted 0441014194.

Havenstar is out of print.

The Heart of the Mirage, up until now, is only published in Australia, and here they refuse to buy Oz books (too expensive, they say). However, they will be getting the UK Orbit edition in - so look out for Heart of the Mirage within the next few weeks.

Good luck.

I'm not sure if this is the right place to ask, but why is it that I can't find your books in any of the local bookstores here in Malaysia?

I've tried MPH 1-Utama, Kinokuniya at KLCC, and Borders at The Curve; no luck whatsoever.

Are your books available here in Malaysia? Or am I just looking at the wrong places? I've never read any of your books before, but I'm an avid (or rather, obsessive) reader. Found your site through Karen Miller's online journal, by the way :) Thanks.

Congratulations on The Mirage Makers trilogy. I wondered if it could be as good as The Isles of Glory and I wasn’t disappointed. I think I’m too old to wait until each book comes out. In future I’ll buy the books then wait until I have the set before reading. That way I might save myself a load of stress and nail biting. Congratulations. I’m looking forward to the next one.

I hope Mirage sells really well in both the UK and SA, Glenda!

The situation in Burma sickens me, too. It is supposed to be Buddhist country, for crying out loud! Nothing could be less Buddhist than that junta and its evil works and especially their treatment of Aung San Su Kyi, whose faith in action shines thorough everything she says and does.

It's not religion that's the problem: it's our misuse of it:-(
