R. Scott Bakker delivers THE UNHOLY CONSULT

After completing the first draft in October, R. Scott Bakker has delivered the near-final, edited version of The Unholy Consult to his agent. From there publication plans will be made. A release date is some way off, but my guess would be that the book would be out in early 2015, or about a year from now.

The Unholy Consult is the third and concluding volume in The Aspect-Emperor Trilogy and the sixth book overall in The Second Apocalypse series. According Bakker, this book will address a lot of questions from the start of the series and could serve as an end-point, although a further series (either a trilogy or duology) is planned.

Hi Adam,

Based on your experience, when can we expect a release date? A few weeks? A few months?

Thanks.

We'll probably hear a release date in a few months,once Orbit and Overlook have figured out their schedules.

I hope this isn't the case, but based on sales, I don't know that he'll get to make another series, which would depress me to no end, given that I don't feel that he's ever been as appreciated as he should be.
