What Would You Like to See in the Fabled Quest Chronicles?
After 4 years, I’m wrapping up my epic fantasy series, the Fabled Quest Chronicles! But it won’t be just one book (Kingdom at Titan’s End, Book 6). There will be two more prequels! We learned how Traveler became who the man he is in the first prequel, Quest Master—a human who knows as much about the Magical Lands than most fae. Lands than most fae. But we must learn how Traveler met his “dog” and how he obtained his magic sword. So, the series will end with one main novel, two prequels, and two boxsets.
As many of you know, I wanted to create an epic fantasy adventure series with all the things you’d expect: knights, nobles, battles, wizardry, giants, and elves. But also, for those who’ve been enjoying the series, novels that would include many things not present in most high fantasy novels, for example—monsters, monsters, monsters. No dragons (which the series explains), but what about the dozens and dozens of fantastic beasts and frightening creatures from classic mythology. Yes, the mythology is Euro-centric, but for those paying attention we encountered people and monsters from far beyond “Europe” to include Asia, Africa, Australia, etc. (A future Fabled Quest Chronicles, perhaps?) The series also touched on other sub-genres—you know I love genre-blends—such as the supernatural (ghosts, werewolves, and zombies) and sci-fi fantasy (elves in space?!)
For all my epic fantasy fans out there, here’s my question for you:
What Would You Like to See in the Epic Fantasy Series as it Ends?

A tie in to perhaps events in the future like a further destiny for him/his line. Does his dog survive into the future as a guardian of the line etc
I would like to see two more books instead of one (prequels not included). I know how difficult it is to have given yourself "just" one more book to finish it all - and the result is often not the best, because some ends are either left lose or tied in a not so satisfactory way :-/I, for one, don't really want the quest to ever end ;-) However, I am actually being serious. I think most readers prefer a long and "drawn out" (not literally) ending to an unsatisfactory one. I know I do. In book 5 for instance I was a bit disappointed about what happened to two of the kings. How did it happen? What did they do? Why build something up for so long and then end it on 3-4 pages? Please don't go completely GoT season 8 on us! ;-)
Maybe write an epilogue afterwards - for example about the (fingers crossed) re-establishment of Lady Aylen's kingdom?
