What's going on with Avalon: Shadow Warrior?

Post by ScarletBird »

Word was that the first book is coming out this fall (the Red Sky Entertainment website still says Fall 2011), and previews were supposed to be posted on avalonmagic.com and the facebook page during the summer. Neither the facebook nor the website have been updated in months, and there's no listing for Shadow Warrior on Amazon. When is it supposed to be released? Also, what's the "Avalon: Web of Magic Omnibus 1: Full Circle" that's coming out next May?

I haven't heard anything new about the Shadow Warrior trilogy. To my knowledge, there isn't a release date for it.

Seven Seas has tentative plans to release an omnibus edition of books 1-3 (Circles in the Stream, All That Glitters, and Cry of the Wolf) in May 2012.
However, the Amazon listing seems to have added a subtitle that should not be there. We'll see if we can't get them to fix that. The book should simply be called "Avalon: Web of Magic Omnibus 1."

Thanks for answering! Is there even a rough guesstimate of when Shadow Warrior will be released, or is it not at that point yet?
And will the omnibus have new cover art like your Aoi House and Luna ones, or will it use the same art from the single editions?

It'll reuse the art from the cover of "Circles in the Stream" due to its iconic nature.

There's an IMDBPro page for a movie called "Avalon: Web of Magic" with a 2013 release date (http://www.imdb.com/title/tt2190191/). The admin of the Facebook (the author?) did drop hints about a live-action movie in the works, but the Facebook and avalonmagic.com haven't been updated in over a year. Does Seven Seas have any Avalon-related news at all?

Other than the omnibus edition that came out earlier this year that collected books 1-3 into a single book, there isn't anything new in the works for Avalon, as far as I'm aware.
