hi, i just wanted to know if there will be a sequel for Thomas? It just has so much more to know in it. It would be a nice if there is another book on Thomas

Michael G. Manning It's doubtful. I have so many other stories to work on. Thomas was one of the first things I ever wrote and was based on a rpg campaign I played in with friends. I might go back to it someday, but not anytime in the near future.

Michael G. Manning That's a reasonable assumption.

The question won't ever be fully answered within the series, and for those who haven't read my other books, it doesn't have any real meaning. But for those who read Mageborn it's definitely relevant.

It won't really affect the plot either way, but yes.

Sorry to bother you. Just wondering what order your series should be read? Thank you so much. Hope you and your family are safe and healthy

Michael G. Manning I wrote a post about this a while back. This should answer your question. :-)

Afternoon from over the pond Michael. Big fan of your series, started out with Mage born when it first came out and now on art of the adept. I think this has the potential to be my favorite. I have listened to all of your books on Audible and I was wondering when the 2nd book would be released on audible? Thanks for all of your hard work, it has been most enjoyed. Andrew

Michael G. Manning Glad you liked the books. :-)

The second one will be out on Audible on September 29th.

Michael G. Manning The second book, Secrets and Spellcraft, will be out in audio on September 29th. I don't have a date for the third book (or for the books I'm still writing either) yet.

Love the Art of Adept series. Beautiful world creation and was able to get emotionally linked to the books and characters. How many books do you plan to have for this series?

Michael G. Manning I'm working on the 4th, Disciple of War, which might be ready in September. I don't know for sure how many books I will do in this series, but there will be at least 5 and possibly more. :-)

I just wanted to say thank you for the wonderful stories. I just finished Transcendence and Rebellion, and it was a great ending to all the characters stories. It is probably the best conclusion to any series I've ever read. ?

Michael G. Manning Thanks. It does my heart good to hear that!

Hiya! Just wondering what your release schedule going forward will be, when are you planning on releasing your next book, I'm guessing it will be the 3rd Riven Gates book?

I am a big fan and have finished listening to severed realm on audible I was wondering when book 3 of the riven gates will come out and also when will it be on audible?

Michael G. Manning I just released the third book and the audio version is entering production now, so I would guess it will be in about 3 months.

This question contains spoilers... (view spoiler)

Michael G. Manning This question was put to me a few years ago. I had a timeline somewhere. The house was rebuilt, but I'd have to go through my notes to tell you exactly when. I definitely should have put some more explicit mentions of that in the books that followed.
