I have read the trilogy of Das Kupferne Zeichen (The Copper Sign), Der Silberne Falke (The Silver Falcon), and Der Goldene Thron (The Golden Throne), in German, written by Katia Fox.
I am quite delighted to know The Copper Sign will soon be available in English as well.

Earlier this year, I also got to meet the author at a book reading in Bad Homburg.
Her first book is now available on pre-order at Amazon.com:
Release date: 06 December 2011.
The second book of her trilogy, The Silver Falcon, is scheduled for release in December 2012. No release date has been set for the trilogy’s final book.
