That makes roughly 40+ books overall, once they're all done. I'm assuming we'll probably see at least one more anthology as well.

Maxx, I think that is at most two more books. Not at least, though it would be nice if you were right.


<shrug> Who knows? He *may* add her into one of the other 5 or so. But I suppose you're right.

Just note that just because the books won't feature her doesn't mean she won't appear. I can imagine her turning up for ten or twenty pages, even if it's not an "Honor book".

Not if she ends up getting killed, which is ever a possibility.

Shadow of Freedom isn't a mainline novel, it's part of the Saganami Island spinoff. The cover lies. :lol:

This. I cop to being distracted and messing up the title to FoD, but SoF isn't #14 - It's SoS #3, no matter what the cover might say :D

Currently Published:

Mainline 'Verse: 13
Saganami Island: 3
Wages of Sin: 3
Anthologies: 6
Manticore Ascendant: 1
Star Kingdom: 3
Companions: 1

Total published so far: 30

:mrgreen:

Also, RFC's made noises about writing about the Grayson Civil War at some point, but I for one would be content if he held off on that until the main-line story arc is done. :lol:

Hey, I'll even settle with five pages of Honor. Oh what can be done with Honor in just five pages. Five paragraphs even!

Son, your mother says I have to hang you. Personally I don't think this is a capital offense. But if I don't hang you, she's gonna hang me and frankly, I'm not the one in trouble. —cthia's father. Incident in ? Axiom of Common Sense

You can paint a zebra solid black, but that still won't make it a horse.

(I'm kidding - kind of. Shadow of Freedom may be marketed as a main-line novel - and understandably so, given that it's essentially A Rising Thunder Part 2 - but the name, the characters, the content, and the setting all mark it as a Saganami Island novel, and so that's what I call it because it's a lot easier than saying, "well, yes, it's a mainline novel, but it focuses on the exact same people in the exact same location as this sub-series....")
