Hints of books to come
I finished writing chapter 4 of The Trouble With Demons yesterday -- Yea!!! I met my two chapter quota for the week. This week, I try to take down chapters 5 and 6. I know where I'm going with chapter 5, chapter 6 is still up in the air. I have a couple of plot path choices. I hope I pick the right one. ; )
It feels odd to me to be writing Book 3 and thinking about Book 4 and you all haven't gotten to read Book 2 yet. Well, except for the first two chapters. So I thought I'd give you a hint of things to come in future books -- without throwing in any spoilers, of course.
The Trouble With Demons
You finally get to meet Phaelan's dad, pirate extraordinaire, Commodore Ryn Benares. I just love this guy! Then there's a man from Raine's romantic past. This is not a man that Raine is happy to see. More on Tam's past in the goblin court. Piaras's spellsinging abilities take a big jump in an unexpected direction.
Bewitched & Betrayed
Phaelan has a brother (who knew?). Phaelan's relationship with his older brother Mago Benares is lukewarm at best, which in the Benares family means Mago hasn't given Phaelan a reason to stab him lately. You finally get to meet Markus Sevelien in person. He's the head of elven intelligence in Mermeia, and Raine's sometime client. You'll also meet Imala Kali, the chief of goblin intelligence, a lady with secrets and schemes, and plots piled on top of motives.
After I put the first draft of The Trouble With Demons to bed, I'll write a synopsis of Books 3 and 4 and get them posted for you.

Lots of Phaelan! Always brightens my day. :D
And we've kinda-sorta-semi met Marcus Sevelian, but it'll be nice to see him in the theatre-release version, not just the DVD Special Features.
Ooo.. yay more Phaelan! He always makes me laugh. And will we be seeing more of Raine's Guardian?
"DVD special features" I love it!
There will be plenty more of Mychael as well. And Phaelan is hysterical in Armed & Magical. Look forward to big laughs.
In future books, I'm trying to give equal time to my five "core characters": Raine, Mychael, Tam, Phaelan and Piaras. And in each book introducing more fun supporting characters.
Sounds like great fun. Can't wait to read them all. :)
yay for family! i can't wait to meet the commodore. wonder how well Mychael's going to take all this. two words as always : more Tam.
There'll always be "more Tam." ; )
