J asked Michael J. Sullivan:

I hate to ask this so soon after releasing AOE, but... what's next? A new series of 6 following the creation of Percepliquis? Whatever it is, I'm looking forward to getting it.

Michael J. Sullivan Hey Jeremy, thanks for asking. So next up is a trilogy which is tentatively called "The Rise and Fall" - and it is based in Elan and takes place after the events of Legends (800 years) and before Riyria (1,000) years. Right now the books are called: Nolyn, Farilane, and Esrahaddon. Nolyn is a name that should be familiar to people who read Legends. Esrahaddon should be recognizable to Riyria fans. Farilane actually appears in both books, but she is only mentioned in passing so people may not recognize her.

I've written the first two books, and I'm doing research to start the third. Robin, my wife has finished her alpha read on book #1 and has only very minor comments (a good sign). Hopefully the book will go into beta soon.

Release dates are tentatively scheduled for the Summer of 2021, 2022, and 2023.

Ana asked Michael J. Sullivan:

Dear Michael, I love Riyaria Revelations. I was wondering, can we expect TV series? It would be amazing to see Hadrian and Royce on screen. Thank you ^_^

Madeleine

Madeleine asked Michael J. Sullivan:

So my friend (who started me on your books on the first place) told me you were writing a follow-up to the Riyria books, but that it wasn't going to involve Hadrian and Royce. What motivated this decision and who will it follow instead? Also: How did you come up with some of the various languages and cultures in Riyria?

Lottie

Lottie asked Michael J. Sullivan:

Hi Michael. This may be too spoilery to answer (if so, no worries at all!), but I was wondering how much time will have passed between the end of revelations and the start of the cycle? Thanks so much! And thanks again for your writing - I'm currently reading chronicles and I love them so much, it's so fun to see early days Royce and Hadrian and i love seeing more of Gwen!
