Update on The Jesus Dynasty in Many Tongues…
I wanted to update readers on the various foreign editions of The Jesus Dynasty. Just yesterday I received a copy of the new paperback of the Italian edition. The book has done very well in Italy and has been on bestseller lists, so having it out in a handsome paper edition is most welcome indeed. A few days ago I heard from a reader in Moscow who had just joined the new Facebook group, and who had picked up a copy in Russian–also just out.
Besides the hardcover and revised paperback U.S./Canadian editions (Simon & Schuster), The Jesus Dynasty has been published in hardcover and paperback in the UK (HarperCollins), and on CD, read by the author. The book is also now available in 14 languages:
Chinese (Complex/Taiwan); Czech; Dutch; French; German (hardcover and revised paperback); Hungarian; Indonesian; Italian (hardcover and revised paperback); Japanese; Portuguese (Portugal & Brazil); Russian; Slovak; Spanish and Swedish
It is soon to appear in: Bulgarian, Chinese (simplified/Mainland), Danish, Greek, Korean, Norwegian, Romanian.
The cover art and design is quite interesting in the various editions. As an author I have no say in such matters and it is always a surprise to see how a certain publisher has chosen to market my book. I have put scans of most of the covers on the Facebook Jesus Dynasty photo album and will add more over the next week or so.
