Today Is The Publication Date Of King Abdullah's Tomb
Dear Readers,
Today is the official publication date of King Abdullah's Tomb, the second edition of Those Who Dream By Day. I've often been asked what the difference is between the two volumes since they tell the same story in the same words. Those Who Dream By Day features Edward and Dora against a backdrop of sand dunes on the front cover and includes drawings of the Lusitania on the book flaps and as a frontispiece. King Abdullah's Tomb has a professional photo of a camel train against the backdrop of the Sahara Desert on the front cover. Dora's and Edward's photos have been moved to the book flaps. A picture of Lawrence of Arabia is included as a frontispiece.
The cover copy is also quite different. The back cover of Those Who Dream By Day emphasizes Dora's experiences on the Lusitania. King Abdullah's Tomb plays up Edward's experiences in Petra.
Other than that, the only other difference is that King Abdullah's Tomb omits the last chapter of Those Who Dream By Day. That textual changes provides a better lead in to the rest of the story.
Sincerely yours,
Dora Benley
