Later this month I’ll have all this information on my website proper, but for now I’ll try to keep everyone updated here. I’ve been receiving emails asking me about the next book so I thought I’d address it globally. I gather from your emails that a lot of readers have been burned over the years by series that were never completed, or took an inordinate amount of time with huge gaps (years) between books. I’m happy to report that Book II is on track, on schedule, and completed. I have in my hands the copy-edited ms for Burning Shadows which will shortly become first pages, followed by second pages, and so on. The pub date of July 28, 2009 (North America, not sure what it is for the UK, Oz, NZ, Russia, Japan, etc. yet,) is a go, which means the book will ship from the warehouse earlier that same month. Writing on Book III has begun, and as far as I know is scheduled to pub in the summer of 2010. Other projects/series are in the works, but at the moment that’s all I can say… 🙂
