Good question! I covered some of this last month in my State of the Cycle. http://blog.kmalexander.com/2015/12/0...
I am revisiting an old manuscript I called Coal Belly. It's a book I have written, rewritten, tried to shop, and then eventually scrapped in favor of working on The Stars Were Right. But, unlike the other dead manuscripts, this one haunted me. I loved its characters; I loved its strange world and its odd magic. I want to tell its story.
All that said, the former manuscript was old, and in the last five years I have matured a lot in my writing. So, recently, I decided the best way to tell this story was to strip it down to its bones and rewrite it. If you like swashbuckling action, riverboats, political intrigue, civil war, and magic, then this will be a story for you. As of right now, there are no plans for a release date.
