a lot of the same thematic issues and concerns as The Goblin Emperor, and I want a break from the problem of kingship.
I very much sympathize. I have a standalone novel I really want to write, The Iron Rose, but I'm going to need a break from royal politics after I finish the Victorian Onyx Court book, and probably some more time to get over PTSD from In Ashes Lie -- which, like TIR and your two, is about the problem of kingship. (Or queenship, as the case may be.)
On the other hand, it does mean I have another reason to look forward to reading TGE; I'm curious to see what you have to say on the topic.
