Tal M. Klein answered V's question: Tal we are 8yrs in now after Punch Escrow, your goal was to do it in half as amount of time as it took to do that novel which was 5yrs, my man...are you close to completing the sequel?? It's... complicated. A lot of the sequel has been written but there are things at play with the Hollywood side of the house that are holding it up. I'm not being lazy, I promise!
