The Gypsy is a 1992 urban fantasy novel written by Megan Lindholm and Steven Brust.[1][2] It blends elements of Hungarian folk tales with a modern-day detective story. The book contains many lyrics to songs that were later recorded by Minnesota Celtic-punk band Boiled in Lead for their album Songs from The Gypsy.
Editions and translations[edit]
The first edition was a hardcover issued by Tor Books in July 1992. At least two softcover editions have been issued since: a mass-market paperback by Tor Books in July 1993 and a trade paperback edition by Orb Books in April 2005. A French translation, La nuit du prédateur, was published by Mnémos in April 2006.
Songs from The Gypsy[edit]
Songs from The Gypsy is an album by Boiled in Lead. The songs were later incorporated into the novel The Gypsy, despite the date of the recording.[citation needed] The album was released on June 21, 1995, in a special enhanced CD format that included the whole text of the book and extra features such as sound clips.
