Victoria asked Michael J. Sullivan:

Would you ever consider writing books about Royce and Hadrian AFTER Heir of Novron? Like how exactly are Royce and Hadrian dealing with their new lives? Will there be another caper that happens to throw them together again?

Michael J. Sullivan Well, you are certainly not the only one to ask ;-). I do have several ideas, but I'm not sure which way to go yet. It could be something set very far in the future where most of the people from Riyria are dead. Or it could be something in more immediate time periods - such as fixing up Druimindor and dealing with the goblins - which may or may not include seeing some old friends. Or it could be a standard sequel where we pick up where the story left off.

As you probably know, the reason I wrote Chronicles rather than a sequel is I REALLY like the way the series wrapped and I don't want to ruin that by "tacking on." I kinda like where everyone (and everything) was left. But that said, the longer I am away from it (it's been almost 5 years since Heir of Novron was released), the more I feel like it could be returned to if done properly. Anyway, I've got a few more stories to tell...mainly the "middle' time which would focus on Esrahaddon, Nevrik, and Jerish. Maybe once those are done I'll roll forward into the future.

So, the answer isn't as cut and dried as I would like it to be. I guess if you hold my feet to the fire I'd say. Nothing on the very near horizon, but something some day
