I’ve refrained from details about what I’ve been writing until certain matters were confirmed, but I can now say that another Grand Illusions book is complete and has been turned in to my editor. The title is Legalist, and it’s a prequel to Isolate, taking place more than four hundred years earlier. The book deals with the events and machinations following the fall of Aloor and the establishment of the Imperium and the increasing political and actual infighting as it becomes clear that Imperador Laureous does not have that long to live.

It’s too earlier to say when it will be released, but I doubt it could be before late in 2026 at the earliest, although, since it’s not a Recluce book, it could be sooner. That’s up to Tor.

I have barely begun work on another novel, which is all I’ll say for now.

    The other 3 are on my reread list, & I’m still very curious to know how Steffan’s bill on ‘working women’ comes out. This series truly is another winner.

    i cannot believe i have been totally engrossed in a book that begins each chapter with the same breakfast, has the same choices for lunch every day, employs the main character by answering multiple letters and waits for something exciting to turn up. love it, love it. it looks like the next book in the series will be a prequel. are steffan and arvaal just going to live happily ever after?
