The Donald Maass Literary Agency has announced the following new translation rights deals for Robert McCammon novels.

These will be the first translations of each book published in those countries. Presumably, these editions will be published in 2020 or 2021.

Other upcoming international editions planned include:

 


Italian publisher Fanucci has published a trade paperback translation of Otto Penzler’s anthology Zombies! Zombies! Zombies!

Il grande libro degli zombie (The Great Book of the Zombies) was published on December 5, 2019, and includes Robert McCammon’s “Eat Me,” originally published in Skipp & Spector’s Book of the Dead anthology from 1989.

The ISBN is 9788834738764, and the book can be found on various European Amazon sites, including Amazon ES and Amazon FR. Oddly enough, only the Kindle edition is currently available on Amazon IT, though Amazon sellers offer it.

Thanks to the fine folks at Crossroad Press, Robert McCammon’s Trevor Lawson books, I Travel by Night and Last Train from Perdition, are now available in ebook formats outside the U.S. and Canada. Both ebooks sport new covers, too.

I Travel by Night ebook at Amazon UK | Kobo UK | Amazon AU

Last Train from Perdition ebook at Amazon UK | Kobo UK | Amazon AU

With these releases, all of Robert McCammon’s books are available as ebooks worldwide.

Bulgarian publisher Iztok-Zapad released a Bulgarian translation of Robert McCammon’s classic coming-of-age novel Boy’s Life. back in 2013. The translation was done by Elena Pavlova, and the cover design, shown below, was by Denitsa Trifonova.

Iztok-Zapad has renewed their rights to the book, so presumably the book will be reprinted in Bulgaria soon.

The Bulgarian edition of Boy’s Life

Polish publisher Vesper has announced that they will be publishing a translation of Robert McCammon’s Speaks the Nightbird (book one in the Matthew Corbett series) sometime in 2020! This will be their first McCammon publication. Other publishers have previously published Swan Song and Boy’s Life in Poland in recent years. In the ’90s, Polish editions of Boy’s Life,  Stinger, The Night Boat, They Thirst, and The Wolf’s Hour were published. You can see all of the covers for the Polish editions in the Book Cover Gallery.

You can see Vesper’s announcement on Facebook.

Their edition of The Listener, also still available from them, is a gorgeous book that drew rave reviews from readers who purchased it. I expect the same will be true of their editions of Cardinal Black.
