D asked Derek Prior:

Shader reboot? Didn't it already reboot once? Why do it now again?

Derek Prior Well, it's not exactly a reboot. It will be heavily re-edited with the addition of about 100,000 words -- scenes that were mentioned as backstory, plus bridging scenes between the origins novellas and the start of Sword of the Archon. This will provide a much more linear progression and eliminate a lot of backstory. Not sure when it will be finished. I've written about 3/4s of the new scenes but other books have gotten in the way lately. Eventually!

Just finished The Sorcerer's Isle . . excellent . . . but how do you sleep at night with that lot inside your head? :-)

Robert Defrank asked Derek Prior:

Reading the first Shader book now. Is there a glossary or references anywhere to how the world became what it is and its various factions and beliefs, or is it entirely a matter of intuiting from context?
