The House Of The Four Winds

[merlinscribe]

No matter what Amazon may say, "The House of the Four Winds" is NOT the next DRAGON PROPHECY book. That would be "Dragon Prophecy #2: Blade of Empire"...

Meanwhile, "The House of the Four Winds" is another collaboration between me and Mercedes Lackey, and we hope you enjoy it. Details to come.

Alas, Book Two in the series hasn't even been bought yet, but I will certainly announce the news here if it is.

(No need to apologize for posting to an old comment thread: that's what they're here for.)

I am very sad to hear that, having enjoyed the first book immensely and having hoped for a release of a second in the near future.

And I as well. I am so sorry.

Hello~ I hope you're having a great day. I really enjoyed reading the first book of the house of winds series. Would it be too much to ask if there is any current news about the second book?

Unfortunately, Tor does not wish to even contemplate the purchase of the sequel to WINDS until I turn in a completely unrelated book, said book to take second place to the next OBSIDIAN book. Thus, it may be some time. My apologies.

I seriously just found this book in a thrift store for a dollar and it is brand new, unopened, and not a fold or crease in it. I wondered why someone didnt even bother to read it, as i was ready to track down the rest of it's missing series.. only to be not so shocked at this point that there will not be anymore to its series for "some time" and now i know why the book was dumped off at the thrift store without being read.. who wants to start book one of what looked to be a 12 part series and at this point its sad to see such a waste of a book which might of been a great read. Looks like i will be donating it back now to the thrift store. I only snatched it up in the first place because i thought it was another collaboration with the wonderful late marion zimmer bradley and got home and realized it said mercedes lackey and james mallory instead. I was actually going to give it a chance too and find more info on the series in case i liked it and thats when i came here and got extremely disappointed.

I am so sorry you were disappointed by HOUSE OF THE FOUR WINDS. My intention, as well as that of Ms. Lackey, was to write a number of books set in the same storyverse, with each one complete so that they could be read in any order. Claire and Dominick's story has been told, and there will be no more books about them. Again, my apologies.

Add me to the count of fans who is eagerly hoping that Tor will let you focus on the second "dozen daughters" book and the rest of the series! I knew it would be several years and I just re read the first one (a hallmark of your collaborations with Misty is that they are highly re-readable, in my opinion anyway.) Is there a place I can sign up to get updates? :)

Me too! I really want to hear about her sisters.
And , I am hopeful that there might be "visits" of previouslly featured sisters in future books to keep each of their characters alive and "in touch " with the others?
Where might I sign up for updates Too?
(With thanks for developing that world,)
Respectfully , :)

And yet another vote/wish for further entries in this series. The first is eminently enjoyable.

I hope you are forwarding these requests to Tor.

Sincerely, Richard

If this is a "the more people who request it, the better the chances Tor buys it" kind of situation, mark me down for desiring another book. (If not, I apologize for dredging up frustration).

I found this thread when I read HOUSE OF THE FOUR WINDS the first time several years ago, and I searched it up again after this second read to see if there were any new developments or changes in heart from Tor.
