Publication
Crown Duel was originally published as The Crown and Court Duel separately, due to factors such as the publisher's belief that there would be reduced interest among the young-adult audience if the length were increased by combining the two halves. The Crown and Court Duel edition contained certain references to Wren's world, creating the appearance that Wren's world and "Sartorias-deles" were the same. These substitutions of Wren's world were removed and restored with the original Sartoran references for the paperback and e-book edition, with added scenes.

Famous quotes containing the word publication:
“I would rather have as my patron a host of anonymous citizens digging into their own pockets for the price of a book or a magazine than a small body of enlightened and responsible men administering public funds. I would rather chance my personal vision of truth striking home here and there in the chaos of publication that exists than attempt to filter it through a few sets of official, honorably public-spirited scruples.”
—John Updike (b. 1932)
“Of all human events, perhaps, the publication of a first volume of verses is the most insignificant; but though a matter of no moment to the world, it is still of some concern to the author.”
—Herman Melville (1819–1891)
“An action is the perfection and publication of thought. A right action seems to fill the eye, and to be related to all nature.”
—Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)
