I've written more in my spare time to see where it will lead. I don't know what will happen in the future, and not knowing for sure is why I've been reluctant to talk about it here because there's no plan for this series to continue.īut, I have been exploring my options with this series. Most of the time, they want to tell me the next part, which has been the case with this series. My characters don't just go away after I'm finished with a story. I, like you, think about these characters all the time. When I finish my other books, I'll have time to write something else.I have to deliver the second manuscript in the series in July of 2017. The first book, SECONDBORN, is finished and will release on August 1st, 2017. Right now I'm in the middle of a new project. I'm currently under contract to write 3 books in the SECONDBORN series. I've always said I'm open to writing more for this series, and I am.It was always meant to be a trilogy, so there's no contract for a fourth book.The publisher is content with it ending here. This is the one we thought had the greatest impact and was the most true to Kricket. I had written several different endings and outlined another scenario. My editor helped me find the ending to the series. My editor and publisher are happy with the ending to the series.I knew after I wrote it that I would incur the wrath of the HEA (Happily Ever After) crowd by suggesting that Kricket's freedom was an HEA and more important than any other way that I could end the series. The ending of Darken the Stars was a brave choice.I've been reluctant to answer your questions and comments on my website for a few reasons, although I have talked about the ending of my series in several places, which includes: Facebook groups, Facebook comments, blog interviews, podcasts, Instagram comments, Goodreads questions, book signings, and in private emails. I've read all of your comments there, even the ones I didn't allow to post for various reasons. Many of you have resorted to leaving comments on my website's Darken the Stars release post from 2015. Now, you're probably either trying to find a link to a fourth Kricket book or plans for a fourth book. If you haven't read the series, the next bit will contain spoilers. Thank you for reading the Kricket series. If you're here, it's because you probably already finished Darken the Stars.
