...and in case anyone was wondering, the official announcement was released today on Publisher's Weekly.
Debut author Allison Pang’s SHADOW OF THE INCUBUS, the first book in a new urban fantasy series about a mortal woman serving as the Queen of Elfland's human touchstone; when her employer goes missing, she finds herself under suspicion and learns that the only way to find the truth is to forge a truce with a sexy demon who may or may not be setting her up to be the next victim, to Lauren McKenna, Executive Editor at Pocket Books, with Danielle Poiesz to edit, in a three-book deal, at auction, by Colleen Lindsay at FinePrint Literary Management (World English).
So there you go. Book one should be released in late spring/early summer of 2011 and 2 and 3 will be released in spring and fall 2012, respectively.

Will the books be available in Europe, too?

Thus far we've sold the rights for World English - so that covers places like the UK/Canada/Australia/parts of India, etc. - things like embassies, for example. Obviously I'd like to see them get translated, but we'll have to sell those rights separately.
In the meantime, tho - if it looks like it's going to be a while, I've got no problem sending people English copies to wherever.

That is awesome, myn! I'm really happy for you!
I would actually prefer to read them in english than to have them translate it to my language, some of the story seems, to me, to dissapear when you translate. And it feels more.. real when it's in the original language. But it would be cool to see them translated, of course
I'll keep an eye out for them

Same here. I can't remember the last time I read a book in my native language. All my books are in English now, for vocabulary's sake.
I've said it on the blog, but no harm saying it twice. Congrats, Myn! You the bomb, girl!

Allow me to giggle insanely at the fact that you can now pre-order the thing off of Amazon.

And that's a pretty smexy cover, if I do say so myself. *cough*
Ignore that book summary though. I don't know wtf wrote that, but it's not quite right.
