![]() ![]() Privateer was a bit rushed, and, while many of you really liked it, many didn’t like it as much. I don’t want to put something like that out in the Carew series, and I don’t want to rush the story either. That was the main plot of the 700 pages - moving from the dead king to starting an expedition of revenge. Hey, they killed the King, we should go get them. Basically Book X+1 came along, at nearly 700 pages, and tied-up or pushed forward some long-running subplots, but as for the main storyline or any real story just for that book? ![]() ![]() I recall a series I really love where Book X ended with the king being killed, then Book X+1 came along. This is a problem with long-running series, and at six books we’re getting there. I could probably write a whole book that only did that, but it wouldn’t be a very exciting book when you got right down to it. The story’s just not coming together, partially because there are a lot of long-running threads that need updating or resolution. For four years, that’s been the schedule, and it’s what I was expecting to keep up in the future, as well. It’s mid-October, well past the time that a new Alexis Carew book would typically be available for preorder and scheduled for a November release. The story’s simply not coming together yet, and it’s been a really rough year for writing. ![]() Tl dr – The next Carew book isn’t going to be released this year. ![]()
