Locus magazine just released their list of Forthcoming Books through March
2002. Still no Glen Cook on the list. It looks like it's going to be a
while.

<color><param>0100,0100,0100</param>If the new book (not counting the Garrett book) is a mystery it wouldn't be
listed in Locus, right? He may even have gone to another publisher
(explaining why there is no listing for a new Glen Cook in any of the Tom
Doherty Associates web pages either).

(Don - I must have been napping when your first message came in)
I've read "A Matter of Time" three times so far and have really enjoyed it
each time. It seems that Mr. Cook's habit of pursuing multiple timelines
concurrently (he does it so often - Shadowline and the first Dread Empire
book, the name of which I can't remember off the top of my head, both leap
to mind) was taken to a new extreme in this one, because I also found it
very disorienting. With that said, however, it seems to work every time he
does it, even though it can make the plotline(s) more difficult to follow
the first time through a book...
I agree completely with your amazement watching all of the plotlines come
together at the end of the book. I KNEW what was going to happen the first
time I read it and was so far off it's scary. (Although in retrospect I
can't quite remember what it was I thought was going to happen...) I also
missed all of the political references...
As a side note, it is because of this book that I was completely psyched to
learn that Cook's next book is going to be a mystery. Although the Garret
books are almost mysteries, A Matter of Time went all the way...

Actually, I've never heard of it. I didn't see it listed on his =

I just looked it up on Amazon and it's being sold for $8.44 to $20.00 =

It's a good mystery, but I've only read it the once. I did manage to acquire a
spare copy of that. My mother, who is slowly becoming a Cook fan (hasn't read
fantasy or SF other than Lewis and Tolkein (there's an expedition for you !) in her
life) will get this one in short order.

I haven't read "A Matter of Time" in a long while, but it was
one of the first non-BC books of Cook's that I read. I loved how he
took all those separate threads and wove them together -- a masterful
job of plotting. That book solidified how much I liked Cook. I need
to go back and reread it.
