I had some problems with storing the long story. I decided to set the size of the different "sections" at close to 500 pages. As I live in country where the DIN sizes are almost law, my pages are like that. But I am sure that I would never hold a book of 500 pages on my chest for a daily reading evening. To get it down to the new published smaller format would be too much job for me. I am glad that the new series have more "human" size and wish all involved all the best for your future work on giving many more readers the possibility to follow this magnificient story.
