Steve Kimmins asked Mark Lawrence:

The world of Abeth created for the excellent Book of the Ancestor trilogy interested me. The science fiction origin is briefly touched on, its future seems limited, the arc of the corridor used in the story is limited in extent, there’s action under the ice. With that unexplored potential any plans to use this world in any future stories? With or without the Sisters?

Mark Lawrence Indeed!

Next year (2020 ... which sounds very scifi/futuristic to me) sees book 1 in a new trilogy set in the same world but out on the ice.

Books 1 of the Book of the Ice is The Girl and the Stars:

Hi, I'm a huge fan of your writing style and the Broken Empire trilogy is one of my all time favourite series. I was wondering if there is any possibility of a movie/TV series adaptation of it? Really enjoying The Girl and the Stars btw and definitely looking forward to any future works!

Thomas asked Mark Lawrence:

Afternoon, Mark. Do you have any tips on discovery writing? I've written two novels now that feel so 'meh' using extensive outlining. I'm writing a third, but I'm already losing steam following the outline. There's just no life or finesse in my work--nothing jumps off the page. I want to be able to write more character focused. However, I think of sitting down to write with nothing to follow, and it scares me :)
