bdoble97 Posted March 4, 2019 Posted March 4, 2019 I'm thinking about doing a reread of Othbringer but its difficult to hide the huge hard cover in my work bag. The paper back doesn't look that much smaller. Are they going to release a normal size trade paperback.
Ammanas Posted March 4, 2019 Posted March 4, 2019 (edited) You already have a trade paperback; the smaller version you are alluding to is called a "mass market paperback". Yes I'm sure they are, but for most publishers it is the last format to be released. Saga press is releasing all the versions of their books at once, but they (and a few other publishers) are in the vanguard in that respect. Edited March 4, 2019 by Ammanas
equinox Posted March 4, 2019 Posted March 4, 2019 There was some discussion whether a mass market paperback will be released for Oathbringer. The books huge size alone might be a problem. However, Amazon recently listed a new paperback version to be released on August 27 (at least amazon Germany). Book size: 10.5 x 5.1 x 17.1 cm.

equinox Posted March 4, 2019 Posted March 4, 2019 I really hope this information is correct. Amazon has already proven to provide false release dates regarding other series and I don't have other, more reliable sources. The ebook fits well in my bag - I have no problem there. But I own all Cosmere books in mass market paperback and it feels so wrong not to have OB standing next to them.

I agree with you a 100 % about having them all in paperback and then OB in the hardcover. Navigate been a fan of E books I have to have the book in my hands
Wander89 he/him Posted March 11, 2019 Posted March 11, 2019 Some people currently have Oathbringer Parts 1 and 2 however our bookstore in the UK has it for release in August so I'm a bit confused as to how this happens. Oathbringer is, whilst a brilliant book, looking so out of place with it's bulkiness to the rest of my collection!
