It remains to be seen if Tor or another publisher will pick up the new novel. This is the project she undertook to do just that. ![]() Originally, it seems that her plan had been to get straight into completing the partially-finished fifth Sword of Shadows novel, Endlords, but upon attempting that she found that her writing skills needed some honing before returning to her fantasy series. Jones has written the novel in just a few months, driven by her early success on Patreon. The new novel is short by Jones's standards, clocking in at 100,000 words or so. Once again, thanks to all my readers who make this all worthwhile. The Cities of Fantasy articles are reprinted on the Wertzone after one month, but you can get early access by signing up to my Patreon feed. Today's article is on the city of Asshai from A Song of Ice and Fire, but I've also covered cities from other book series and video games. I also blog over on Patreon, where I'm currently producing the "Cities of Fantasy" series. ![]() Next up - probably after a break of a few weeks or a couple of months - will be the "Narrative Maps" covering the events of the novels themselves. This has been quite a project, a full year or so in the making following the completion of the earlier "Historical Maps" section. We cover a similar distance from the frozen northern polar region beyond the Lands of Always Winter down to the steaming equatorial jungles of Sothoryos and Ulthos. Today I completed the "Geographic Maps" section of the Atlas, 25 maps which cover the known world from the Lonely Light in the Sunset Sea to the island of Ulos in the Saffron Straits beyond even Asshai, a full seven thousand miles to the east.
