Bundled, Tossed, Untied, Stacked: Publishing News

By Tom Spurgeon

* this would seem to be potentially significant news if you combine the continued popularity of the game and the fact that bookstores have done really well recently with concepts based on gaming.

* here's a more standard book and TV-show related deal. I suppose it's possible there are enough fans interested in that narrative for a book like this to work, maybe even tremendously so, although I suspect that for most a version with live actors is key.

* finally, Michael DeForge reminded me at his CXC spotlight panel yesterday of this news from a few months back. That will be a hell of a book, and it's a series that DeForge says he never would have quit had he been able to afford its continuation. That book should trigger another round of appreciation for DeForge.
