372.0. "Kurtz:Deryni Archives" by SHOGUN::HEFFEL (Tracey Heffelfinger) Fri Aug 15 1986 14:38

    	Just thought I'd let fellow Kurtz enthusiasts know that she
    has a new book out.
    
    The Deryni Archives is a collection of short stories.  Some have
    been  previously published, some not.  I had only read one of the
    them before.  The stories are from right before the camber trilogy,
    throughout the years of persecution.  They range from the story
    of how Rhys found he was a healer to how Bishop Denis Arilan became
    the first Deryni priest to be ordained in over 200 years.  Inclused
    are Kurtz's comments about her stories, and the original statements
    that she wrote down upon waking from the dream that inspired the
    first trilogy, the novelette that that became, the precis for the
    first trilogy and the outline for the first book that she used to
    sell the first trilogy.  I found it VERY interesting to see how
    the story changed and matured as she went along.  If you think she
    matured between the writing of the first and second trilogies, you
    should see how far she came to get to the fist trilogy.  
    
    	I knew this was coming out this month but almost missed it cause
    I was looking for a hardback.  It is in paper back.  Kutz fans will
    find it a must.  If you have not read Kutrz's books, DO NOT read
    this first.  You will enjoy the stories more if you've read her
    stuff and her intros contain spoilers to her novels.
    
    	In case you haven't heard yet, The Search for Saint Camber will
    out of December.  Also in her comments in the Deryni Archives, she
    mentions the *3* future trilogies that are planned.  (Now if she
    could just write faster!  I have severe withdrawal symptoms by the
    time my yearly fix comes around.)

	Guess I'll have to trudge out to the bookstore, sounds like a good book!! Now don't rush Ms Kurtz too much! I'd like more frequent books too, but I'd prefer the quality she puts out, rather than the mass production of "some authors" lately...
372.2	Codex Derynium	COOKIE::WITHERS	Reality is for those who can't cope with Science Fiction	`Mon Aug 18 1986 16:00`	11
	According to the local bookstore where I bought the Deryni Archives, "forthcomming books" (the publisher's equivalent of Books-in-print) doesn't list _The Search for Saint Camber_, but does list something called _Codex Derynium_ (or similar...its been a while) that's due out in paperback on October. The blurb said that it was a collection of stories and poetry! Ms. Kurtz has/will be busy! BobW
372.3	Oh boy, oh boy!	SHOGUN::HEFFEL	Tracey Heffelfinger	`Thu Aug 21 1986 13:52`	8
	I hadn't heard about the "Codex Derynium". Goody-goody! I head about Camber from the same source that said that Deryni Archives would be out in August. I believe it was an issue of LOCUS from about 3 months ago. I guess I'll have to dig it out. tlh
