The link is to a thread from last September, about the book in my title. I wasn’t sure if it was zombie yet, so I’m playing it safe.

I finally read The Sword of the Lady, finishing this morning. I really wanted to like it, but I’m getting quite confused. As one poster in the above thread said, I also wanted to see the effect on humanity when the laws of nature changed/were changed. It’s getting a tad too metaphysical for me.

But I can forgive that if there’s supposed to be another book, to finish this off. I’d expected there to be just three, as with the other series, but the ending of TSoTL left stuff hanging.

So, IS there going to be another book?

AFAIK, the answer to that is a qualified “Yes.” Supposedly he is plotting out at least one more book in the “Dies The Fire” verse.

Two preview chapters of The High King of Montival are already up on smstirling.com, so… yes.

4

Yes. They have to get back, after all.

– yes; there’s THE HIGH KING OF MONTIVAL, just finished (out in Sept. '10), THE TEARS OF THE SUN (Sept. '11) and THE GIVEN SACRIFICE (Sept. '12).

Rudi is a bit confused too; dealing with transhuman intelligences will do that to you… 8-).
