I spoke with a rep from Simon & Schuster two days ago. In addition to the big
CD-ROM project they listed two other titles coming out, both by Marc Okrand.
One was a book due out in March, and the other was an audio tape due out in
August.
However, I had a chat with Marc Okrand this morning and he cleared up a few
points. As far as he knows, there is no audio tape coming out in August. The
titles I was told by the S&S rep were "The Klingon Book of Virtues" and "The
Klingon Way." According to Okrand, his upcoming book of proverbs (which he
describes as mostly English) was originally going with the Book of Virtues title
but that got changed to The Klingon Way. Apparently the folks at S&S think they
are different things. Okrand claims no knowledge of an audio version of this,
and given the confusion with the title I suspect that S&S just made a mistake.
But... you never know.
