Fans asked (less than 24 hours after I released the final prequel to COS) if there will be more.
The short answer: Stay Tuned.
I am currently working on an urban fantasy with my oldest daughter called House of Cards. To get a look at some of the characters and get a 'feel' for the series, go here: http://stravenlite.deviantart.com/art/Taps-and-Friends-at-Beach-468363132
The first book will be released later this year. It is geared for ages 9+ and has been a real learning experience. My family has always been involved in my books (since I eat/drink/sleep the worlds I create) but this has been the most fun I can have without being twins...and the hardest thing I've had to do.
There are four books planned, but the amount of information two of us can output is staggering, so it is likely to expand the way COS did. Which means I will take at least a year off.
For fans of the COS series, I plan to write the sequels in this sequence (Naturally, things could change):
1) Sundara - Queen of the Ammonites
This is Wyn and Japh's story with all your favorite characters (who survived) from COS 1-9 AND the prequels. Writing this book was a no-brainer. I wanted to tie up the burning question: What happened to the blister known as Vael? If you didn't know he was still alive, please re-read the series.
2) Sons of Thunder
Continuing where Sundara left off and setting up the rest of the books
3) Return to Shara
The title is self-explanatory - the Ancients (minus Vael ) will return to Shara to confront their past and take care of unfinished business.
4) With Wings and Talon
This had to be written to fully explain harpies and how Revaya and Pax do among them.
5) Ties that Bind
The big wrap-up scene - probably.
Yes, I have some of them planned and bits written down, but try to be patient. You never know what bits and pieces of other books may pop up and out, so as I mentioned above, Stay Tuned....and thanks.
