The announcement of a new collector's edition for Onyx Storm has reignited the debate about publishers releasing multiple editions of the same book. While special editions can be appealing to collectors, the trend can leave readers feeling pressured to buy multiple copies.

A new collector's edition of Onyx Storm has been announced, and it continues a publishing trend that isn't great for readers. Onyx Storm 's release date is fast approaching, with the next Fourth Wing sequel hitting shelves on January 21, 2025. After Iron Flame's shocking ending, readers are eager to get their hands on the next addition to The Empyrean Series. With any luck, Onyx Storm will answer some of the biggest questions leftover from the first two books.

Like Fourth Wing and Iron Flame, Onyx Storm is getting special editions and even a collector's edition, allowing readers to purchase the book with features like sprayed edges, original artwork, and even a bookmark. These types of editions can be exciting for readers, but they can also have a downside. Rebecca Yarros and Red Tower Books revealing a new collector's edition of Onyx Storm from Target has left some readers feeling conflicted (via Instagram). Such editions becoming more common leaves consumers with difficult choices to make. Onyx Storm's Editions Are Continuing A Publishing Trend That's Unfair To Readers New Books Are Getting Too Many Editions While Onyx Storm is certainly not the most troublesome example of a book receiving multiple editions on release day, it still leans into this trend by having both a deluxe and collector's copy hitting shelves on January 21. While the two versions of Onyx Storm don't seem to be vastly different — their edge designs vary, and the collector's edition has a ribbon bookmark, original art, and a full-color map — these details could push readers to buy multiple copies of the same book. The later announcement of the collector's edition also didn't give readers who placed a preorder ample time to choose. There are worse examples of it, as some special editions feature more than artwork and bookmarks; they also include bonus content readers must buy specific copies to read
