Mark! You've said Red Sister is not set in the same world as your other two trilogies. Is Red Sister set in the same universe? Is it in the far future from your other two trilogies, but on a different planet?

This seems to be a bit on an "how many angels can dance on a pinhead" question.
Does it matter? How would you tell?
I never answer an in-book/story question, even to myself, until I have to. My answer to "what happened to XXXX after YYYY" is always: "If it's not answered in the book then I haven't decided. Why pin myself down?"

Hey Mark, Loving the Broken Empire trilogy so far! I'm 1.5 books in. I just want to say, most of the lower reviews I have seen are from people who seem to expect that your book should have come with a content warning, I think that's ridiculous! Sure there may be some mention of rape here and there, and a little torture when needed, but all scenes very obviously serve the narrative. Especially in this series. ?

Looking to the future are you tempted to write anything that’d fall more into the Horror category? You seem to enjoy Stephen King, for example. I think there’s often not much difference between darker, realistic, fantasy and the horror genre. Maybe the main difference is the world in which it’s set, with ‘conventional horror’ being more contemporary, in our world?
