I've been wondering whether there are plans to translate some of the more recent #solarpunk novels (wishlist: A Half-Built Garden, The Terraformers, the Monk&Robot Novellas, also many anthologies...) into German (but also other languages)?
I used to think it just takes a lot of time, but learned today that e.g. Walkaway was translated within a year.
Any people here with insights into how these decisions and processes work?
