I wrote here a few months ago, after discovering your books. I just completed my 15th. They’re really good books … but I’m guessing you probably know that. Alas, soon there will be no more Gordon Korman titles to find in our library system, so I might just have to go out and buy some as gifts for myself. I did just buy one for my daughter’s fiancé, so there’s that. — your oldest fan

why are no more books being published? you cannot find the old books from the 1990\'s anywhere unless it is a ebook. Gordon Korman books are the best in the universe. It is a crime against humanity that they are no longer in print. I wanted to email the author himself but alas, his personal email address was not available to the public. It is a real shame. These books can do so much good. Lately all kids are experiencing is brain-washing, mind-numbing, no-good media and movies without morals. BRING BACK THE BOOKS!

YEAH!!! You should tell Scholastic to reprint some of your books! I've never read all of the latest books but not the This Can't Be Happening At Macdonald Hall, Scholastic sold it once but they sold out before I could get one.

Hi, Pat,

Thanks for posting. I'm honored that you're my oldest fan, Pat, but my Mom says she and my Dad hold that spot. Sorry. Will you settle for #3?

Hi,Adina,

Thanks for posting. I'm really pleased to hear that my books have meant so much to you. But they shouldn't be that hard to find. With the publication of HYPERGIFTED, there are 107 of them out there now, and #108, SLEEPLESS, will be available in July. There are people who are looking for other people's books who complain that my stuff is hogging the shelves!

The very oldest are the Bruno & Boots Macdonald Hall series, and they go back to the late 1970's. The very first one is coming up on a 50th anniversary, and is being done as a graphic novel. So I hope you'll keep digging, Adina!

Kindest regards, -----Gordon Korman-----

Hi, again, Kormaniac Daniel,

I think your request may be granted even as we write these letters! The 50th anniversary of my first book is coming up -- it's THIS CAN'T BE HAPPENINGAT MACDONALD HALL, and it's being done as a graphic novel even as we speak. I'm hoping the whole series and a lot of the older books will be reprinted for that anniversary. Meanwhile, watch for SLEEPLESS, which is #108, and is due out early in July. I'm hoping the Kormaniacs will do a Book Club review of it right here on the website.

Regards, Daniel, -----Gordon Korman-----
