So I'm reading the Sunday paper, as I often do on Sundays, and I see
that the ABA bestseller list has Swordheart (T.Kingfisher) listed 6th in
the fiction category.[1]

But I'm curious. I did indeed enjoy the book, but it was written in
2018. Per isfdb[2], there was indeed a new edition released a few weeks
ago.[3]

Does anyone know what's causing the sudden interest and resurgence in

special news or anything.

It was supposed to be the 1st book of a trilogy (there were 2 other
swords), but she wrote 4 _Saint of Steel_ books instead. Maybe the 2nd
Sword title will be released this year (however no sign in books
forthcoming). Or perhaps it is just the new edition.

Interesting - thanks.

Have you read the Saint of Steel books? I haven't yet, but I expect to
some day.

The ususal suspicion when something like _1984_ or _Farenheit 451_ is on
the bestseller list again is "Welp, high school reading assignments have
just been handed out..."
I'm guessing that's unlikely here?
