I never really imagined Seven Noble Knights would come out in hardcover.
It used to be that every top-tier new book release would be available only in hardcover for sometimes a whole year. "I'm waiting for the paperback," could be heard in the houses of frugal readers. After the advent of ebooks, even a paperback is a luxury, and hardcovers have lost their financial relevance.

Except for those wonderful collectors who prefer the solid feel of a hardcover book in their hands. And except for libraries. As I mention in the video, I was a catalogue librarian for a sweet time in my life, so I know all too well the steps involved in acquiring a book for the stacks. A paperback will not last the same way a hardcover will, and there are many steps in the decision about what to do with a paperback. A quality hardcover like this takes all of that headache away.
And my goodness, does it ever look good on a shelf!
Thanks so much to Encircle Publications for making this wonderful phenomenon a reality.
I'm going to look into the financial practicality of doing a giveaway to my loyal readers, so look out for that!
