The sequel to The Fifth World finally has a name. I’ve decided on The Fifth World: The Times that Try Men’s Souls. It is now in the second stage of editing, which unfortunately will take a little longer than expected. The release date was late June but it seems that won’t happen. It looks like early July is more realistic. I’ve also started looking for a graphic designer for the cover art.
Sales for The Fifth World are steady. Hopefully the release of the sequel and a new marketing campaign will help generate some more buzz. An outline for the third book in the series is nearly complete. I am hoping to start writing the third one in a month or so. With any luck the release date on the third will be Winter 2014.
I’ve also made progress on the military sci-fi story I mentioned earlier. It won’t be a full novel, probably a short novella. It will be a long series with each novella being about one-third novel length. The style will be more gritty, low-life, and dark comedy. No timeline on this one yet.
That’s all for now.
