The entry for “Tigerheart” at Amazon.com now has the cover up, along with some pre-pub review comments from Terry Brooks and Bob Salvatore. Actually, it’s just the front part of the cover; the final version is a wraparound.

Peter,
Is this book intended for adults or is it acceptable for younger readers? I’m only asking because I think my girlfriend’s precocious 9 year old would enjoy this.
Absolutely no problem for a nine year old.

Nice cover. I just pre-ordered the book, Peter.
Pete, is this a stand alone tale? Something along the lines of Apropos or the ‘Knight’ series?
I ask because I enjoy your writing, but was soured from the cliffhanger/wait times between books like the New Frontier series (you’re busy, I know, and the time you take crafting your works is a credit to you).
Ageless boy? Could it be Peter Pan?

Yes. Beginning, middle, end. Is there potential for a sequel? Sure. But there’s no cliffhanger involved.

Its a pastiche. There’s a character who’s simply referred to as The Boy.

When I first read the title, I thought it said, “Tigerheart Cover Up”. And then I was trying to think what “Tigerheart” was, what I missed in the news, and why was it being covered up….
D’oh!
Anyway, this will be a “must buy” for me. It looks like fun!
Peter Pan prequel? Man, say THAT three times fast!
Even if I’m off about the core concept, looks like a cool read anyway. Extremely classy cover, by the way. Love the mermaid-ness.
Speaking of good PAD reads, where in the heck is that Sir Apropos short story? I can’t find it anywhere. “Knight In Training” novel? Izzat it?
Excelsior!

PS – Forgive the incompressible rambling-ness of my reply. I saw the Leafs win tonight live in person and got all excited and drunk. And it was good.
It’s not a prequel, actually. The Disney stuff is prequels; this takes place after the events of “Peter and Wendy.”
The Sir Apropos short story is in the collection “Heroes in Training.”

A pastiche, avoiding character names and book titles, is a far more attractive approach to existing properties (discussed on another string) than authorized or unauthorized sequels – which are much less disturbing than revisions of the original work. If not for pastiches of “Gladiator,” “The Scarlet Pimpernel,” “Frankenstein” and a few others there would be virtually no comics characters and a much reduced number in other media.
This sounds like an interesting novel.
I like it.
Cool. Now write more !!! Please =)
“(you’re busy, I know, and the time you take crafting your works is a credit to you)”
Agreed. Understanding that, I nevertheless I need to ask: What’s the status on the The Ðámņëd World novels. I see mixed reviews, but nothing about when or if further installments are coming out.
