Just heard that Michael Swanwick has sold his new novel, The Dragons of Babel, to David Hartwell at Tor for a Fall 2008 publication. I’ve read all of the stories – Lord Weary’s Empire” and others – and they’re terrific. Can’t wait to see the final novel!!

That’s great news. More Swanwick is a good, good thing.
That’s fine to hear but an eighteen-month wait! At least we’ll have the new collection this year. Any word on a ToC for ‘The Dog Said Bow-Wow’, Jonathan?
I’m confused. Is it a collection that’s being touted as a novel?
My post was clumsily worded. Michael excerpted a handful of chapters – maybe four or five – and amended them to read as stand-alone stories. The book is a novel apparently, not a fix-up. The stories include “King Dragon”, “Lord Weary’s Empire”, “An Episode of Stardust”, and two or three others.
Aha–thanks.
