David asked Kevin J. Anderson:

I just read the first Dan Shambles novel-- I feel like I walked in the middle of a story. I think the Big Uneasy event needed more coverage as more discussion of people coming to grips with such an event seems more stuff. Do you plan to do a bit of a prequel? Or do the other books in the series sort of cover that?

Kevin J. Anderson That's not what the series is about; these are detective stories in an unusual setting, and Dan does his best to solve one mystery or another. The idea you suggest would be an entirely different kind of novel, like a disaster horror epic. In these tales, the world is getting back to normal, and everybody--monsters and humans alike--are just trying to get by, but they have the same problems as before.
