T-26 and counting

2,132 words.

Where do Felix and Mildmay find these conversations?

o.O

ETA: on the other hand, this is--or should be--one of the great strengths of writing series fantasy. By the time you get to book three or four, your characters should know each other well enough that they can have conversations that deal with subjects other than Saving The World or Star-Crossed Angst.

... okay, yes, if I was writing The Wheel of Time, it would look COMPLETELY DIFFERENT.

The second last Obernewtyn comes out in end of this year. Last one next year. She is very apologetic about it. She wanted one final book, but that would have taken another ten years.

With you on the Wheel of Time. I think it would be fabulous.

Oh, i know.

I heard end of this year too, but Penguin have given me three different dates for the release, and the rep is currently selling for October and it's still not on their sales list. I'm not holding my breath, though i think it'll probably end up on the Christmas release list. It's not the delay i mind so much as her starting about 3 other series in between.
