Hi! Thanks for reading, I’m so glad you’ve enjoyed the series. Though it’s not currently set to be traditionally published, I’m working on what would be the fourth and final right now. Hopefully I’ll be able to get it out to readers one way or another, only time will tell!

Thanks, I'm so glad you're enjoying it!
The Divide is the edge of the universe, specifically. Their galaxy is positioned "near" (100 million ly) the edge, so there's nothing of note between the Divide and their galaxy. But the Divide itself doesn't encroach on their galaxy (yet, at least... 😅)
Hope that helps! Enjoy!

Haha, thank you! I’m really glad to hear you’re enjoying them! Rest assured I’m writing away behind the scenes, can’t wait to share more soon. Thanks for reading!

Hi! Apologies, I’m not sure how I missed this question!
I don’t have a “final" rank structure as I’ve intentionally left some room in case I ever need to ret-con in extra ranks, haha.
This is the current order, though there may be extra ranks between some of them:
– oculus (akin to private)
– circitor
– animus
– optio
– legator
– dextera*
– centurion
– excubitor
– praetor (akin to five-star general)
(*exclusive to members of the Titans)

Though originally I'd considered it a standalone, it does have duology potential! Nothing confirmed yet, but it'd be really fun to write a sequel if the publishing gods agree! :)

Nothing confirmed yet, but I do have a fun idea for a sequel and would definitely be open to it if the publishing stars align! :)

Book #3 will be coming in 2024 or 2025! Currently only the third is confirmed. I plan for at least 4, though I hope for even more!

This series you've developed, has so much potential for expansion. Just the hint of a multi-verse (or similar?) I just read is enough to bring the possibilities up to way over 4 novels, for sure ! The Viator history, and all the possible arcs that could come from other Galaxy survivors coming into the "Levalaine" as well. I see a gold mine of tales to be told here ! :)
