I need your opinion

Monday, June 11th, 2007

Hi, friendsters!

I got BIG problem! Most of the publishers that I had contacted said that I should change The Nar’Kobar Trilogy into a ‘Nar’Kobar Book Series’ (cheaper and thinner books with around 200-300 pages). Why? They said the novels are too damn thick and expensive (for local readers) and no one in their right mind would even think of reading/buying them!
The second Trilogy (Nar’Kobar - The Hero) has 650 pages and the third (Nar’Kobar - End Game) has more than that (around 700-800 pages).

Personally, I don’t agree much with their idea coz it would change the overall ‘flow’ and ‘feel’ of the trilogy (One of Harry Potter’s series has 1200 pages, but lotsa local readers still bought the damn expensive book. Hehehe…). Moreover, I know Nar’Kobar himself wouldn’t like it if I cut off his story into little bits and pieces. Hehehe..
.

Well, I’m asking YOU, as readers of Nar’Kobar, for an opinion on this matter (in any language..hehe). What d’ya think about this, friendsters? Should I convert the trilogy into a thinner and cheaper book series (maybe around 6 - 7 books)? Remember, your opinion would determine the future fate of Na’Kobar.

Salam,
