Is there any chance that Prince of Fools will be translated into german? Do you even have a saying in this? I love the universe of Prince of Thorns and really enjoyed reading it
Mark Lawrence
It seems highly unlikely.
If a German publisher makes an offer then I have a say in whether I accept that offer and allow them to proceed. But I can't make them publish it if they don't want to.
I could self-publish it, but translation is expensive and I don't believe I have the means to let German readers know it's there or encourage them to read it. So I would lose money.

Mark Lawrence:
Could you please, please write another funny fantasy book, a la mode 'the red queen' trilogy? It is my favourite. It is so difficult to find elsewhere the tone you set in the book- a serious fantastical world seen through the eyes of a comical, witty character. The vice-versa is more commonly found. What inspired the departure from your usual style to one with so much humour? Hope you and your loved ones are safe
