[@halliehurst4847]

The UK paperbacks baffle me. But here’s an explanation. So first: When they first come out there’s a hardback as you’d expect, then a big paperback the same size as the US ones. Then after a couple of moths they bring out the two normal ones. The centres ones, like 9:01, are the bigger covers and look really nice. They’re what I have except for way of kings (we’re getting to that). Sitting in two isn’t common at all in the UK, I can only think of a handful of other editions that have done it. There’s longer books, in fantasy and in general, that aren’t split in two or made into tall paperbacks. I know Sanderson has said that it makes them better for the UK market and I’d be interested to know what he means by that or if someone just told him that. He might be getting confused with elsewhere in Europe, of the places I’ve been Germany does it and maybe Austria? But someone from those countries would be better answering because I’m just going with what I’ve seen on holiday. It’s definitely not normal practice in the UK at least. Maybe the big paperbacks weren’t selling but in that case why split them in two instead of just making them normal sized and why continue to sell the bigger ones? The big ones don’t fit on the shelves in some Waterstones so maybe it has something to do with that? Which okay I get. However, the dark way of kings ( 8:48 )one is a normal sized book height wise, just thick. So I don’t understand why they didn’t do that for the others. The dark way of kings cover is an older edition before they changed the covers but is still easy to buy in shops. I wish they’d kept going with it for the rest of the series. Both height wise, for the design and the fact it’s not split into two. I don’t actually know if it’s possible to buy the whole series consistently in the UK. I don’t because I have the old way of kings cover then the big paperbacks. I guess if you’ve bought the split covers then you could? I’m not actually sure how the prices work out? I think the last one was £16.99 for the big paperback then £8.99 each for the normal ones? Something like that. So there you go. I’m aware that doesn’t help much. We’re all confused over here too.

[@unprofessionalcritic3107]

I've been scratching my head for a long, long time over the weird UK paperbacks of Stormlight Archive and you're the first person I've come across who cares enough about this write a long ass comment. 😂 I own the big size trade paperback of Way of Kings. It's hard to even find people who actually know about these editions. Everyone i see thinks they only came out in split in two versions

[@raffaelsteinmann7296]

I can only speak of the german versions we have here in Switzerland. It's litteraly insane. So many big fantasy series are split. ASOIAF? Bam, 10 Books. WoT? 36, here you go. Stormlight? 6. Oh, and you pay like 25 bucks for one. Not kidding.

[@lilibellenada7519]

Raffael Steinmann. I think I know why German translations are most often split into two parts: texts in German are often much longer than the same text in English. I don‘t know if we need more words to say the same thing as the English do, or if we have more letters in our words... Either way, the German books get sooooo large. Imagine the US Oathbringer (I think it has roughly 1200 pages?) and then the German version would probably have a few hundred more.

[@MsBlulucky]

Well yes, Germany does that, but still it's not that common. I only know that it happend to ASOIAF (and since I didn't want pay 10*16€ I just bought an english box set for 25€ total 😅) Page count is one reason, but I mean, I've got the German translation for LOTR as one single book which is 1300 pages long. So it's not like it's impossible to make such tombs. My guess is that it's both the page count and just plain capitalism...

[@diarya5573]

I've got all the split covers in a consistent form factor, so, newer editions, yeah.

[@SuperSGFreak49]

I always loved the clean and cohesive style of the uk covers. It made sandersons books really standout on the shelf because they would be this stark wall of white with swirls of colour. It also gave the sense right off the bat that everything was connected even before I knew about the cosmere. I didn't so much mind that stormlight books got split. I think they did it to match the size of the other cosmere books, which are quite small in paperback

[@iiXalexXii]

The UK editions also have full length versions (the miscellaneous ones you mentioned) :) They all look really awesome

[@Rhadagar]

The most intriguing thing for me about the US Rhythm of War cover is how Adolin seems to be making the colours on the rock around him more vibrant...

Well, the Brazilian Covers are all amazing for Mistborne. Also for the Kingkiller Chronicle. Even though our books are expensive as hell, we at least get some top notch material, in fact our Kingkiller edition has extra material for the Kingkiller Chronicle (you can check out the wikia on the days of the week for that book, it's from our edition.

They had to split the Stormlight covers in the UK because a) it’s easier to print and b) you can split books more easily and still sell in the UK market. At least, that’s what I think Sanderson has said.

[@markomojsov63]

The International Covers are absolutely INFURIATING. I have some mild OCD tendencies so when i bought Stormlight 1 & 2 it pissed me of so much that they don't MATCH. Seriously. One is shorter one is longer, the placement of the author/book title is different on each. This was a problem since they came out. I seriously don't understand how, knowing there will be 10 books in the series you don't do something incredible like they did with Shadowhunters for example. They have released a cover update now, but I can see that they have no plans of making the spines match.. Pretty sure they're doing this so some people (like me) will buy the books twice.. otherwise it makes no sense.

[@conoroneill8067]

For some reason, whenever a new Stormlight book comes out, it's in a single volume, but after the initial release, it seems they move to the two volumes version, which is all you can find in bookstores about a year after release. It's actually kinda irritating, because I like having consistent versions, and I have a single Oathbringer, but can't get a copy of WoK or WoR unless I buy it split, which bothers me. Which... maybe is part of the point? Like: "Hey, buy this limited edition now, or else you can never get this version/edition ever again and you will be forever doomed with an incomplete/inconsistent set." (I'm Aussie, by the way, but I'm pretty sure it's the same in the UK, since we also get the UK covers and the split-in-two thing.)

For the UK basically what happens is that the book gets sold in one single hardcopy then has a limited release as a single paperback before then getting split into two.

A similar happened with ASOIAF where both A Storm of Swords and A Dance With Dragons were split into two.

[@adamgribble3936]

Fella that worked at a bookshop once told me the reason for the split was because when printing the massive volumes it almost cost as much to print as they made selling them. Cutting them in half allowed them to charge twice and almost halve the cost of making them.

[@andrewrodger2855]

I believe the UK books were only split in two for the softcover releases. I think the hardcovers were each single volume which is why there are different versions (half face versus full face). Not sure though - read it on kindle because who wants to hold up a 1000 page book for ours on end.
