The revival of John M. Ford
Key takeaway to Making Light readers who remember John M. "Mike" Ford's brilliant run as a co-blogger here: Tor will, indeed, be reissuing all of Mike's novels, plus a new collection of short fiction and marginalia. We'll also be publishing, for the first time, his unfinished final novel Aspects.
Huge thanks to the Ford family and to Tor executive editor Beth Meacham, who worked out this deal over the space of nearly a year. We could not possibly be more excited.
The program will begin with The Dragon Waiting in late 2020, then Aspects in early 2021.
Obviously, this program will not include Mike's work written inside somebody else's IP, such as, for instance, his two Star Trek novels.
Further schedule details will be forthcoming as we finalize them.
