GHOST IN THE SERPENT question & answer

When I mentioned that my next book would be GHOST IN THE SERPENT, that got both an enthusiastic response and a few questions, so let’s answer them here!

-When will GHOST IN THE SERPENT come out?

Hopefully October.

-When does GHOST IN THE SERPENT take place?

Just about a year after GHOST IN THE SUN.

-How many books will the GHOST ARMOR series have?

I am planning for six.

-Will there be an audiobook for GHOST IN THE SERPENT?

We are hopefully planning to record GHOST IN THE SERPENT in November if all goes well.

-Do I need to reread the previous GHOSTS books first?

If you want to.

The truth is I can try to make GHOST IN THE SERPENT as stand-alone as I want, but people will still want to read the previous books anyway. Like, I had to laugh when I saw some of the coverage for AHSOKA with the shows’ creators insisting that you didn’t need to watch STAR WARS: REBELS or THE CLONE WARS first to understand the show. Meanwhile, all these content mills were coming out with articles like “27 Essential REBELS Episodes To Watch Before AHSOKA!”

So if you’ve never read any of THE GHOSTS books, the first book, CHILD OF THE GHOSTS, is free on all ebook platforms, and the bundle of the first three books, THE GHOSTS OMNIBUS ONE, is only $0.99 USD on all platforms at the moment.

-When are you going to write another Nadia book?

After GHOST IN THE SERPENT is done. It will be called CLOAK OF EMBERS and will hopefully come out in November or December.

-What will GHOST IN THE SERPENT be about?

Well, you’ll just have to read and find out. 🙂

One preview: we never did find out why the Surge summoned Kylon back to New Kyre.
