Shane Duquette asked Lois McMaster Bujold:

I absolutely love your writing, but I can't figure out how to buy the Penric books. Is buying the eBooks the only option?

Lois McMaster Bujold Not anymore. There are the two new Baen dead-tree collections, the first hardcover, Penric's Progress, just out, containing the first three novellas, and the second, Penric's Travels, with the next three, due in May. Baen paperbacks will follow at the usual remove. (Baen also has world rights on these paper volumes, so no problems ordering overseas.)

Also, "The Orphans of Raspay" will be out from Subterranean Press in their usual deluxe hardcover come summer. I'll have more about that on my blog as dates firm up. For it to be collected by Baen, I'd have to write two more, however, so that would be a while.

And, of course, Blackstone/Audible/Downpour has the audio versions. Also some public libraries.

Anyway, lots of options. B&N online and Amazon are two sources for paper as well as ebooks. Baen should have some distribution through regular bookstores. SubPress has a different business model -- you need to go online to their website or to a few specialty stores like Uncle Hugo's for their offerings, though I believe some regular bookstores can order them in by request.

(Not quite my mom's old quip about the lazy man who said, "Just roll me over and stick it in me pocket," but darn close.)

Good luck --

L.

(Oh, and as I write this, "Knife Children" is pending real-soon-now from SubPress as well. I'll blog it when it ships.)
