Stefano G. asked Peter V. Brett:

Hi Peter, I love reading and collecting fantasy, can't wait to dive into your series! Are there any plans in making 'Daylight War' and ' Skull Throne' published by Del Rey/Ballantine? As is the case for the first 2 books of the Demon Cycle... I just recently bought the latest 2 books, and it irked me quite a lot that they are different editions (only Del Rey...)! I can send you pictures to explain. Thank you.

Peter V. Brett Hey Stefano. Thanks for the question. Random House has bought a number of fantasy imprints over the years (Bantam, Spectra, Ballantine, Ace/Roc) and merged them with Del Rey, absorbing the authors and sometimes staff while slowly phasing out the other imprints. I can understand how this can cause a logo change on the book spine than can be jarring on the shelf, but there's not much for it. Ballantine as an entity doesn't really exist anymore.
