The Sending (which will be published as a single book in Australia) will also be released as two books in the US and Canada - The Sending and Red Queen.
There's some information direct from Isobelle on the publisher's decision to split the books in the US/Canada, in this news post.
This will be the final order of the books in the Obernewtyn Chronicles, depending on which Publisher you obtain them through:
Published by Penguin (Australia): 1. Obernewtyn 2. The Farseekers 3. Ashling 4. The Keeping Place 5. The Stone Key 6. The Sending [not yet published] | Published by Random House (US/Canada): 1. Obernewtyn 2. The Farseekers 3. Ashling 4. The Keeping Place 5. Wavesong 6. The Stone Key 7. The Sending [not yet published] 8. Red Queen [not yet published] |
If you obtain either all 6 Penguin editions, or all 8 Random House editions, you will have the complete Chronicles!
