El escritor australiano acusa a la editorial española Grupo AJEC de no abonarle los derechos de las obras que ha publicado.

Este es el texto del comunicado que ha publicado en su página web:

If You read my books in Spanish, please don't buy any editions from the publisher Grupo Ajec. Ajec are currently selling versions of Teranesia, Axiomatic and Diaspora (under their imprint Albemuth Internacional) in both paper editions and as e-books, despite being in breach of their agreements with me. They never legally acquired e-book rights at all, and they never paid the advance that was due when they signed the contract for Diaspora three years ago.

I have several other books currently available in Spanish from reputable publishers (Distress and Quarantine from Ediciones Gigamesh and Permutation City from Ediciones B, as well as Luminous due out soon from Bibliópolis / Alamut), and I hope that Teranesia, Axiomatic and Diaspora will, before too long, be made available from a reputable publisher.

Puestos en contacto con la editorial, nos han afirmado que se trata de un malentendido y que ya han escrito a Egan y a su agente para mirar de aclararlo lo antes posible.
