== A few Richard Morgan changes ==
The second edit for the book formerly known as "Cold Command" is from here: http://www.richardkmorgan.com/2009/03/oz-and-dark-delays.html and from the publisher's upcoming books (page 78) http://www.orionbooks.co.uk/extras/catalogues/GollanczNewBooks_Jan2010-July2010.pdf Note this also has the two ISBNs that it will be published under
The first change should be obvious as the ISBN's matched -- KelleyCook 22:57, 1 March 2010 (UTC)
- Now I know what edit you mean. The first one was going to duplicate a variant relationship that already existed. All that was necessary was to merge the two titles. I was about to post here when the second edit took me off on a tangent. ~Bill, --Bluesman 23:55, 1 March 2010 (UTC)
- There's only the one record change here that I can see and the only record was from a data-mining robot we have called "Fixer". From the two sites I can see where the justified changes came from, but the one thing I don't get is the series number of 19785??? There's just the one book in the series which would make this one #2?? ~~Bill, --Bluesman 23:09, 1 March 2010 (UTC)
- I moved the discussion here as other editors/Moderators might be interested. Unlike other Wikis we find it easier to follow threads/discussions if kept to one page. ~Bill, --Bluesman 23:11, 1 March 2010 (UTC)
- The first chapters of "Cold Commands" were put at the end of "The Steel Remains" and has the same characters, so yes it is book 2 of his fantasy series, which ISFDB has dubbed "Land Fit for Heroes" — incidentally the working title for "The Steel Remains" ( http://www.richardkmorgan.com/2007/10/october-07-nuclear-reactions.html ). Contrary to the implication by the ISFDB entry for Cold Commands, this book was never released in Sep 2009; "Cold Commands" was renamed to "Dark commands" and was pushed back to July 2010 according to the publishers upcoming releases note -- or September 10th according to Amazon.
- Come to think of it, I suppose it may be easier to delete the never released "Cold Commands" and just put the new correctly titled book titled Dark Commands under the "Land Fit for Heroes" series -- KelleyCook 15:08, 2 March 2010 (UTC)
