5.0 out of 5 stars Loved it back in 1991; still waiting for the follow-up!, May 8, 1998

By A Customer

This review is from: Nightfeeder (The Chronicles of Galen Swordmaster) (Paperback)

Really enjoyed the first two Galen Sword Books, and give it a "10" for the genre. Haven't read it since it first came out in 1991, and had stopped looking for the next one. The first two books created a well developed universe existing in tandem with our own, which slowly reveals itself through the eyes of the main character. I got caught up in the the hero journey, the slow maturation of Galen, and the seamless way in which the alternate fantasy universe was interwoven with our own, including the mix of science and "magic", combined with a gritty realism that heightened my empathy for the various characters. The authors wrote in their appendix that they had the whole plot line laid out, so am curious as to why they haven't published the next one. I know they've been writing a lot; horror, star-trek, other sf, but I got the impression the Galen Sword series was successful enough to warrant a concluding volume. Hope it comes out one of these days!

5.0 out of 5 stars Please continue the Series or I'll die!!, August 21, 1999

I wish the authors would PLEASE finish the series. I've been waiting serveral years for another book in the series. I'm not much of a fantasy fan but this series was really great. I recommend it very highly.

The author(s) started writing Star Trek books after the last "Galen Sword" book and have seemed to have forgotten this series. :(

So many question left unanswered here.

I encourage everyone who wants another book in this series to write to the authors, via the publisher. And express your desire for another book in this series.

1.0 out of 5 stars There won't be another book., November 27, 2011

I actually had the fortune a few years back, after I read the "most recent" book in the series, to have an email exchange with the authors. I had recalled them saying, although I no longer remember the source, that now that they had returned to the series, they promised to finish the series. That, unfortunately, is my only issue with the authors and the series. When I asked them about that promise, they told me they would never finish the series, or publish another book in the series. I understand that their other books are probably far more lucrative, and I know they have other things going on besides just writing, and I applaud them for that. I, however, detest a promise made and not followed through, better to make no promises at all....
