The cover for "The Spectral Blaze" is on amazon. :)
Is it Brimstone on the cover?
I've not read any of Mr. Byer's books before "Unclean", so I don't know this character well.

Awesome cover.
The red is definitely Tchazzar. The other one could be Brim. Or mayhap a new character, Richard? |

First, thanks to Elsenrall for letting us know the cover is up. I hadn't seen it until now.
Brimstone is not on the cover. I don't want to tell you what dragon the undead-looking one is because it gives away a plot point, and I'm a little OCD about trying to preserve as many surprises in the story as possible. But I'm probably not giving away anything by saying that Dennis is right: the red is Tchazzar. |

[I'm not sure if I already asked this before, of if someone did...]
Richard, will all the three new books of the Brotherhood of the Griffon series be primarily/only set in Rashemen? |

Hi, Dennis.
Honestly, I don't know. At this point, the publisher hasn't even signed me to do any more after this next set of three, so I haven't locked in any plotting decisions for what would come after, although of course I do have some ideas about what to do and where to go.
I can tell you that Book 7, if there is one, will very likely not to be in Rashemen. But that doesn't mean the saga won't head back that way eventually. |

Sorry for the obfuscation, Richard. I was actually referring to books 4-6 of the BotG.
By the way, is there any criteria that WotC is looking for before they decide on an “early” release of a sequel? As far as I know, only your series is given this kind of treatment. Most of the books in trilogies by other FR authors have at least one year gap. |

Hi, Dennis,
Books 4-6 are mostly in Rashemen.
As far as how WotC makes scheduling decisions, you'd have to ask them. They don't tell me what they're thinking when they make decisions about another writer's work. Sometimes I don't hear the reasons for decisions they make about my work. |

Thank the Gods that Byers' work gets released faster! He is one of my favorite Realms authors and waiting a year between books would be tough. I am truly impressed with the diversity of subject matter covered by his various series. Great stuff! |

Good news? You be the judge.
