Any news on Peace Talks

--- Quote from: KurtinStGeorge on December 09, 2018, 10:08:55 AM ---For now. I'm really enjoying the Alex Verus series and even though the latest book came out in July, I won't be surprised if the next book is out before Peace Talks. Benedict Jacka has already finished writing it and it is going through the first round of major edits. (His editing process takes much longer that Jim's, so it probably won't be out until next Fall or Winter.) I just started the latest Rivers of London book today. Time moves on and so do I. I think back to when I was a teenager, and when a band I really liked took extra time off before putting out another album or just broke up, I didn't stop listening to music, I found someone else whose music I liked.
The Dresden Files is Jim's creation and his property, so he can do whatever he wants with it. However, I determine where my time and money is spent. At some point, my patience is going to run out and I will move on. That's not some kind of threat, that's the way of world. I'll be a bit sad if I reach that point, but I'll get over it.
Thinking about where the series has gone since Changes, I've had high hopes that Peace Talks would be a major step forward, laying the tracks that would point us towards the BAT. Now I'm less sure and also a little less interested in it, to boot. I'm sure my interest will pick up if I hear Jim has finished or I hear he's writing the final, denouement chapter. I'm not sure that will be true in another six months.

That is about where I am, at the moment I am rereading the Sharpe's Rifle series by Bernard
Cornwell. Or rather the earlier books about Richard Sharpe's life that Cornwell wrote later after the
main series and the television series made from it were finished. He is a very good author and
carefully researches his novels, even sometimes where possible visiting the places where the
action originally took place. I also had just finished rereading from Hobbit to Return of the King all
the while marveling at the greatness of Tolkien...

I suspect that there are a two types of fans, some that are prepared to wait forever and others that will lose interest and move on. More power to them both. Personally I'm interested in one thing only, the novels. Nothing else. I'll buy them as long as he writes them or until I croak, whichever comes first. But nothing else.

I suspect that I will too, my biggest fear is I will croak before he finishes the series..
Dina:
Don't be afraid, Mira. If we die before he finishes it, we will read it from the other side :D

But will Jim still write it if he is on the other side?
