F+W Media acquires Tyrus Books

You probably recognize F+W Media (www.fwmedia.com), they offer a variety of magazines and books, many of which you have no doubt read. Popular Woodworking, Woodworking, Watercolor Artist and... oh yeah, an obscure little title called Writer's Digest. I need to look for that last one sometime. ;-)

Anyway, F+W Media has announced in a press release on their website that they are going to enter the fiction market through the acquisition of Tyrus Books (www.tyrusbooks.com). Tyrus Books likes to put out crime books that focus on crime and its repercussions.

From this acquisition will be born F+W Crime, which will launch in June 2011 with around 200 e-book titles and plans to add print titles in the Fall of 2011. F+W Crime intends to continue publishing crime titles that live up to the quality that fans of Tyrus Books have come to expect.
