As far as we know I think, it's just the US for now. But if it does well, even just marginally well, I can see them porting it to other countries for one of two reasons. If it does really good, they'll do it for just plain more money. But if it just does okay, there's a chance they may do it in a chance to increase overall sales to keep it going.

Either way, we just have to hope for now. ^_^

Hi everyone!

As I understand, there will be a new edition of the books soon on sale, but do you know by any chance if it's just for the USA or not? I live in France, and I miss a few books (I could buy them on eBay or other websites like this, but for more than twice the price...too expensive for me...^^')

If someone have an answer, it would really help me ;)

**sorry if there is some mistakes^^**
If you don't live too far from my home (so near Lyon), we can find a way to buy for both of us and pay less for the shipping... ;)

Something tells me that the answer is "no." Although I probably shouldn't really be talking here...

This is sad we had to close the translation project with the Ebook project.
We have many not-English-speakers here and it was cool to have fan-made translations of the books...
Plus, I'm not sure fan-made translations, when they touch books who weren't translated, are illegal. After all the other countries must have bought the copyrights only for the volumes who were translated.

no noNNNNNNNOOOOOOOO the ebooks were my source to keep my favorite quotes from the physical books I've read and borrowed from the library. Sadly, my library does not own the complete collection of this series and coming here was my insurance to read what's not in my library :( #28 and two other books ... Aw man :( I was really hoping I'd read the whole series finally this year. Something told me that I  should have downloaded alll of them incase something like this would happen.

 No hard feelings on scholastic though. Hoping the future re-release will expand on to the final book though I like the mid to late 90's references in these ones since I grew up with this generation of Animorphs. Scholastic can at least provide ebooks for sale! I'd HAPPILY buy them.

yeah, i never downloaded them myself (own them), but i understand your loss.
thankfully we'll be able to get them once scholastic puts them up for sale.

i might buy a few new ones, maybe more.

oh, and welcome to the forum, eagle.

I come back after a very long absence and find this. Nice thing to see on my return, huh? >:( What's weird is that I actually knew in the back of my mind something like this was going to happen eventually since this is one of the biggest Animorphs sites out there. Even though seeing the E-books gone was very disappointing, it is good to see that the community is still here.

I've heard the first few books will get re-released in the summer of 2011. There's a thread here about it.

Same exact thing for me. I actually had all the books downloaded at one time, and then I rebooted my computer. I never got around to downloading them again, even though I had a nagging voice in my head that told me to do it.....
