Kate Elliott is working on the second volume of her new
Spiritwalker Trilogy, but
recently blogged that an extremely long-standing plot problem which brought about an end to her
Jaran science fiction series has been resolved, and she now 'knows how to' write the fifth volume in the series. No firm plans have been made to write this book, as Elliott has the remainder of the
Spiritwalker series followed by additional books in her
Crossroads fantasy universe planned. It would also be preferable if the existing books were reprinted before a new volume was written, which obviously depends on Elliott's publishers.
The published
Jaran books are
Jaran (1992),
An Earthly Crown (1993),
His Conquering Sword (1993) and
The Law of Becoming (1994), with the second and third novels actually one very long novel called
The Sword of Heaven that was split in half for length reasons. The fifth book, if it is ever written, would be called
The Game of Princes.
In related news, Elliott has also disclosed that
Cold Fire (the second book in the
Spiritwalker trilogy; the first,
Cold Magic, is out in September) features both zombies and sharks, but sadly no news on ninjas and/or pirates yet.

The sharks have eaten the ninjas, and the zombies dined on pirate brains, that's why. :)
