This collection of books starts with a new biography called George MacDonald A Writer’s Life, the longest biography of MacDonald ever written. 600 pages covering fascinating aspects of MacDonald’s life that no one in 150 years had ever thoroughly explored. Included are many facts and details about MacDonald’s books and their publication histories that were generally unknown previously.
Along with A Writer’s Life, the collection also includes 37 newly updated editions of all MacDonald’s fiction — including expanded and lengthier editions of those Michael Phillips edited back in the 1980's. These 37 volumes represent the cornerstone of his work over the past two years.
The matching set is entitled “The Cullen Collection,” in honor of the village in Scotland where MacDonald wrote and set his classic, and Michael's favorite of all his books, Malcolm.
One of the most exciting things about these new editions is that for the first time they will also be available as ebooks from Kindle, something many people have been waiting for a long time.
Finally, an additional 10 books of the 48-title project will be added to The Cullen Collection. These ten books are comprised of newly released accompanying non-fiction titles about MacDonald and compendiums of his work. Some of these have been previously published and will be re-released, some are new. These titles, too, will also be released on Kindle for the first time.
