Gareth Brown Hi Calvin - thanks for the question! I genuinely don't know what the seventeen books are... and for some of them their identity might not have been discovered yet, Drummond himself might not know yet. And as for Lily, Yasmin and Hugo... I am sorry but I can't remember! It's been so long since I wrote the Book of Doors!

I'm currently reading "The Book of Doors", started it this week. Please tell me, do you have a whole series lined up? The concept is too nice to only cover one book!

Gareth Brown Hi there - I don't have a whole series lined up, but do hope to come back to this world at some point. Thanks for asking!

Have you ever seen the mini-series, The Lost Room? Your books make me think you'd love it there or maybe at Warehouse 13.

Gareth Brown Hi Jonas - yes I watched The Lost Room recently - it's great! Haven't seen Warehouse 13 though.

I read The Book of Doors in May and I loved it. I am now a little more than half way through The Society of Unknowable Objects and I both want to slow down because I don't want it to end, AND I cannot put it down because I am spellbound. Brilliant story telling. Will you please write more?

Gareth Brown Thank you for your kind words! I will definitely try to write more!

Gareth Brown Hi Aberline. No - Barbary is not Mr Webber. We haven’t seen what happens to Barbary yet.

I found out about this book looking for something new here in goodreads. I couldn't put it down and drowned in it. I didn't even know it was going to be translated in italian and was quite suprised when I found it in bookstore. Thank you for your work i really loved it, cried few times too. I'm happy it's a stand alone, but I can't avoind asking myself will be there more of them?

Gareth Brown Hello! Yes I hope there will be more books in this world!

Just finished The Society of Unknowable Objects after winning the Goodreads giveaway for your book! Loved it, loved it! I had read The Book of Doors last year and this book didn't disappoint. Will there be a third book after that cheeky teaser with Cassie?

Gareth Brown Hi Diana! I hope so… but I don’t know when… watch this space!

Hi Mr Brown! I recently read Book of Doors and today I just started reading your new book! I gave TBoD 5 stars so am excited about this one. One or the other is probably going to be my favorite book this year (TBoD is so far!) I just turned 17 and was wondering what kind of books were your favorite when you were my age? (I always love getting recommendations from authors I love). Also, are you working on a new book?

Gareth Brown Hi Caleb - thank you for reading my books! So pleased that you enjoyed them. When I was your age I was reading a lot horror fiction. Authors like Stephen King, Robert R McCammon, James Herbert, Ramsey Campbell and Peter Straub. I also started to read a lot of commercial thrillers at that age, as well as literature classics (I did a literature degree at University). Basically I think read whatever you want but try to read widely. And yes - I am working on a new book right now!
