We have been published in Russia!
I know you’re fixing to complain about the covers. Don’t ruin my moment.
Finally. So we sold the rights to KD to a Russian publisher years ago, but the book publication date kept being pushed back and back until finally they were in breach of contract, and the rights reverted. I am so glad EKSMO came along and nabbed them, because look, books! In Russian! They exist.
I have sent a link to my father through Skype and braced for the lecture on how we wrote everything wrong.
Woo! Russian books! Okay, have to go back to EMERALD BLAZE now.
Karen says

It says “Magic wounds (v.)” and “Magic Burns”, so I’m guessing 1 & 2, but it could technically be 4 & 2.

Is your Dad published in Russia? If he isn’t, you can just tell him “come back to me with your criticisms when you get published in x number of countries”.
I know much easier said than done.
