Dear Michael, I am currently reading Age of Death (of The Legends of the First Empire) and I am loving it. I can't wait to find out what happens next but I also don't want to finish the series. I remember you wrote a blog about the "soundtracks" of The Riyria Revelations. Do you have a special playlist for The Legends of the First Empire that you could share with us? Thank you, All the best, Ana

Hey Ana, I'm so glad you are enjoying the story. I know how hard it is when you get toward the end of a series and you run out of things to read. The good news is that more is coming soon. My new series (The Rise and Fall) fits between the Legends of the First Empire and the Riyria novels. The first book (Nolyn) releases in August, but for those that pre-order through Kickstarter (launching Feb 9th at 12:00 noon), they'll get to read it in April.
As to your question. Unfortunately, I don't have a soundtrack of popular songs for the Legends stories, like I did for the Riyria books. That said, I did commission some original music to be created by a great composer (Will Muser). You can access these songs from my dropbox at this link.
The songs include:
- The Legends of the First Empire (all books)
- Suri & Madga (Age of Myth)
- Grin the Bron (Age of Myth)
- When Gods Colide (Age of Myth)
- The Keenig (Age of Swords)
- The Battle of Grandford (Age of War)
- The Dragon (Age of War)
- Exodus (Age of Legend)
- The Tetlin Witch (Age of Legend)
- The Gilarabryn (from Riyria)
Let me know if you have any problems accessing them. And I hope you enjoy the listens!

Hey! Your series has many layers to it and you often mention that one of the reasons why you write the series as a whole before publishing is to get them all in order. But how do you actually incorporate these layers into your writing? Do you just go with an idea them add the needed scenes as you go or did you have some plan/list of what should lead to what somewhere to keep them all straight as you wrote?
