Translation of Koji Suzuki's "Ring" novel cancelled???

post #1 of 6
Thread Starter 
What the hell is going on? The book was available for pre-order from amazon but when I did a search for it today it was gone. Plus the link in the Evilshop doesn't take you anywhere anymore. I was really looking forward to reading a translation of the original novel but now it looks like I'll never get the chance.

Yeah, I got an e-mail a few days ago cancelling my pre-order. Grrrr! They're all out to get me!

Here's the deal:

The book was originally set for publication by Viz Communications, who do a lot of Japanese stuff in the U.S. For some reason, the project has switched hands to Vertical, Inc., and the book is delayed until at least Spring. I'm surprised Amazon just removed the link now.

You know what the real bitch is? Viz was planning on an illustrated novel as well as a straight text one. Now it's just going to be a normal everyday novel.

Damn.

As soon as it's ready for pre-order again, you'll know.

This is strange, we quebecers
actually have access to a
french-translated version...
usually, english versions get
out quicker...

...this hides something bad...
