Gracie from Battle #3? She went to live in Savannah with her parents. She was with Gauge for a while before she broke things off and decided to focus on her and Bonny-May and building a future for themselves :)

At the moment, I don't have any plans for any further books in the Nomad series. Crank features in some of the other Highwaymen books (Ride or Die series) but for now at least, his story is complete. Thank you so much for reading x

Hi Don, originally there was always 8 books planned, however I believe it will be more like 10 now as the plot has changed over the years.

Hi Margaret!
I’m currently hard at work on Odium 7 and hope to have it out around October time if all continues the way it is. With the disruption of covid and having to homeschool my timetable got behind but I’m back on track now.
Thanks so much for reading!

We actually talked about this over Christmas and are both really keen to do the third book in the series, and we did talk about doing it at some point this year. However, we both have very busy schedules and given that we're both homeschooling now too because of the current COVID-19 situation I can't promise anything. But it is a possibility!
Fingers crossed,

Hey Sandra!
We’re hoping to have season 3 out by the end of May! We had intended originally for April but with everything going on in the world it’s been pushed back a little.
We’re all safe thank you. Hope you’re all okay too.
Love

Hi Margaret, yes, Odium VI is currently with my narrator and we hope to have it out by sometime next month, all being well. I’m currently writing Odium VII so I don’t expect the audiobook for that to be out until the end of the year.
Thanks for reading,

Hi Joanne :)
I had always planned out 8 books, not including the Origin books, however, as I'm writing, new characters are coming to life and my plots are taking on different turns than I predicted. In that respect I wouldn't rule out more books in the series if I think it's needed.
I also have a spin off series planned for characters which you will meet in Odium V... more to come on that soon.

I have many favourite fictional characters. It doesn't help that I read such a broad spectrum of books either. But I guess if I had to pick just one, the one that stands out is that of Dr. Victor Frankenstein and his monster.
It's both a story of love and horror, which makes it profound for me.
Their unbalanced relationship is the true horror of the story, in my eyes. Not the creation, but the power plays at work, and , despite Dr. Frankenstein's later guilt and despair over what he has created, he still lords his power over his monster.
There are just so many levels to this story that it has always stayed on my radar.

(view spoiler)[Wait, did Nina die at the end of the 3rd book? I don't remember her dying! I just read the synopsis of book 4 and did a double take. Did she die? I could look it up on my kindle but that is too much work because I have so many books on there it will take forever to pull it up, please help! (hide spoiler)]

(view spoiler)[So sorry, I must have missed this over the Christmas period.
At the end of Odium 3 it was left open as to whether Nina died or not. She went back in to the Mall and sacrificed herself so that Mikey, Joan and Adam could escape.
Hope that helps

Hey Betty.
I know! *runs and hides* I'm actually very behind with my schedule. I'm currently working on Odium IV and Odium 3.5 and also Into the Light #2 I hope to have all of these books out by the end of the year, in the following order.
Odium IV
Into the Light #2
Odium 3.5
It's so great to hear that you're enjoying my Odium series, I hope that you'll give Out of the Dark #1 a read while you wait for the next Odium books. I promise that if you like things that go bump in the night, and emotional, heart-pounding reads, you won't be disappointed.
Thanks for getting in touch, and I'm so sorry the books aren't ready yet. But they will be. Soon. I promise.
