Hi, I am extremely obsessed with your Odditorium series! I love the writing style and perspective and so obsessed how each character has their own quirky personalities. I know it’s been many years but I wanted to ask if you have any plans continuing/finishing this series? I’ve reread them quite a few times and would go crazy because of the questions that never got answered. Lol
Gregory Funaro Hi Sirena! Thank you so much for your question, and I'm so happy that you like the Odditorium books. I hope to write a third one someday, as I originally envisioned the series as a trilogy, but I guess it didn't sell well enough. :-( You never know, though. In any event, thank you again for your enthusiasm for my books--you made my weekend! Best wishes, Greg

Mr. Funaro. I do so enjoy your art. I must say your two books, "the scultor" and the "impaler" are two of my favorite, and unforgettable novels. I have read from an early age, 7, 1957. Many novels and many fine authors but your two novels on the mind warp of these antagonists rocked my reading world! Thanks for that. Will you pen another?
Gregory Funaro Hi John! Thank you so much for your kind words--it means so much to me--and so glad you enjoyed my thrillers. I am focusing on children's lit at present, but who knows? Maybe someday I will go back to the genre that started it all for me. :-)

when is the next book coming out or is there not going to be one?
Gregory Funaro Thanks for asking! As of now, no third book is scheduled to be released in the Odditorium series. But who knows? I'm keeping my fingers crossed that the powers-that-be might change their minds someday. :-)

First off, I love your series! What was your inspiration for the odditorium series? And how do you enter the giveaway?
Gregory Funaro Hi Rissa! So glad you love the series, and thanks for your question! I was inspired to write for children after the birth of my daughter, and the initial idea for the Odditorium centered around Nigel and his daughter. Over the next year, that somehow evolved into the story of Grubb and Grim, and Nigel's story became one of the subplots. As for the giveaway, all you have to do is click on the book and scroll down to the "enter giveaway" button. Thanks for reading, and happy new year!

the book sound like a really good red, but the competition is only open to Canada, america and the uk?
Gregory Funaro Hi Nina. Are you talking about the giveaway for Odd Aquaticum? If so, the giveaway is only open to readers in the US. :)

Just finished an advance ebook of your delightful story. How many books will be in the series? Can't wait to handsell this one!
Gregory Funaro Hi Suzze! My apologies, but I just saw this question--not sure how it got by me, but so glad you enjoyed Alistair Grim's Odditorium! I originally envisioned the story as a trilogy, so hopefully the powers-that-be at Disney will make that happen--if they want more than three books, then hopefully yours truly can make that happen. :-) I just finished edits on the second book, which I expect to be released in early 2016. Thank you for your lovely review, and all the best for 2015!

What are you up to my scary writer :)
Gregory Funaro Hi Dolly! Nice to hear from you, and thanks for your question! Working on the first book in a new middle grade series while I wait for edits on book 2 in the Odditorium series. Can't wait until Alistair Grim's Odditorium comes out in January of 2015! :)
