Gary Corby:
Will Death In Delos be the last instalment in the Athenian Mysteries series? I hope not, I'm not ready to say goodbye to Nicolaos and Diotima yet.
Gary Corby
Hi Selle. There will be more books. I'm currently working on a project outside the series, but I definitely know what happens next in the lives of Nico & Diotima and their tale will be told.
It's kind of you to ask. You might be interested to know that when I was writing Book 3, Sacred Games, it wasn't certain that the series would continue, and in fact I had loosely assumed from the beginning that this would be a trilogy. That's why the final scene of Sacred Games could be read as a completion.
It was while I was editing Sacred Games that the publisher asked for more books. So here we are at Book 7, and the end is not in sight.

Gary Corby:
THE GREAT NATURALISTS by Robert Huxley says that Aristotles appointment of Theophrastus to succeed him as head of the Lyceum “was controversial.” I wonder why? I am not a scholar by a long shot but I thought there might be another Gary Corby story in the answer?
