Storm Boen asked Andy Peloquin:

I read the first 3 books of Darkblade series. While shopping for number 4 or a second Omnibus, I found other books that appear to be part of the series, but they are not listed on your website. Reading other questions here, I see this is the rewriting of an original series of Darkblade. If I dont read the old version, am I missing anything? Also found “the Last Burcelia”(forgive the spelling) 1-3, what are these?

Andy Peloquin The Last Bucelarii was the very first incarnation of Darkblade, with Hero of Darkness being the second, the Defengers of Legends box sets being the collections, and Darkblade now the one and only.

If you don't read the old versions, you are missing nothing. The story remains the same overall, but tweaked and overhauled to be a much better experience.

Those who have read the original versions, though, will find the new-and-improved versions a fascinating look at the same character done in a slightly different way for a whole new reading experience.
