Matthew Kotzmacher asked David Dalglish:

Was always curious if you ever planned on exploring a book or books about the world ashhur and karak came from? I feel there'd be alot of exciting action and cool lore about the other gods.

David Dalglish In all likelihood, I doubt I will, for the sheer reason that it'd be yet another prequel book. After I started the Half-Orcs, I wrote prequel series with Paladins, Shadowdance, AND Breaking World. Going backwards yet again? Nah. I don't think I could do it and maintain my sanity. Plus my poor readers have had to wait years just for me to move the story forward, I can't imagine trying to split my attention to also filling in yet more back story.

So yeah, it could be a lot of fun, but the overall ending would be known. If I did decide to explore it, I'd find a way to do it via flashbacks/character stories in future Half-Orcs novels, so I can flesh out some of the fun bits without having to fully dedicate an entire novel or two to the premise.
