A Ring-Shaped World

September 10th, 2019

Whoops. I see it’s been nearly a month since I posted here, but that’s because I’ve been working hard…

Here’s a quick update on Silver:
I received the editorial letter on it at the start of the month, and I just finished my first pass through the edits. Only the hard stuff is left! 🙂 🤔🚀

Here’s one of the items included in the newsletter:

A Ring-Shaped World

I’ll speak cautiously to avoid any significant spoiler, but towards the end of Edges there is mention of a ring-shaped world, planetary in scale. A few of my longtime readers have already made the connection. This world is the same world featured in my novel Memory.

When I wrote Memory, I thought of it as being apart from the Nanotech books – a separate story world. But as I worked on the new Inverted Frontier series, I realized these two story worlds could overlap in a very interesting way.

Silver is a direct sequel to Edges, but it also works as a sequel to Memory. You don’t need to read Memory to enjoy Silver, but if you like the idea of exploring in this evolving story world, you can drop by my website to learn more about this earlier novel.

    I’ve already picked up all the Nanotech books so I can catch up to Edges and now this‽ Oh, wait. I already have a copy of Memory. Now I just need to figure out where to fit it into the flow.

    LOL, it took me 15 years to figure out how to fit it in! 🙂

    Well then, Memory has been languishing on my Kindle for months. This prompts me to move it to the top. It’ll be next up after I finish my current book (Now reading Dorthy Sayers’s Whose Body. Quite a nice change of pace for me.)
