Hey Adam -- thanks for asking!
The short answer is Yes, but I'm not sure when.
I have one more Carter Archives novel drafted, and I'm figuring out how to get it into the world. I also have plans for other related projects, such as novellas and short stories that either feature Carter or are set in the same world.
The best way to stay informed is to jump on my mailing list, over at www.danstout.com -- it's the easiest way to hear about new publications, etc.
Seriously, thank you so much for reading, and for being along for the ride!

Hey Michael,
Thanks for reaching out! I have one more Carter Archives novel planned, and I have plans for several other related projects, such as novellas and short stories that either feature Carter or are set in the same world. (I even have a couple irons in the fire for different formats, such as a comic book, but those are all in very early planning stages.)

Thanks again!

Hi Cindy!
First off, thank you SO MUCH for reading! It honestly makes my day to hear that someone connected with this world and these characters that are so close to my heart.
The short answer: I am absolutely planning on more material for this series, both as short stories and long-form fiction.
The longer answer: I’m working out how I’m going to bring those new books to market. I’m taking the time to make sure I get things right, and I also took a break to be able to come back with fresh eyes. So I don’t have release dates, but I can say for sure that I’m not entirely done with Carter, Jax, and the city of Titanshade.
Hope that wasn’t too much of a convoluted answer, and seriously – thank you again for being along for the ride!

Thank you so much!
The question of how much to show of the world was definitely something we talked about in the editing and revising process. There's very much a history and timeline of the world, and it will absolutely be revealed as we go. (Honestly, I've had too much fun creating that history to not share it!)
Part of the challenge has been that Carter is far more interested finding justice for victims than dealing with global issues, so it's taken some thought to figure out how to show more of the world while staying true to the characters. But I'm very proud of how it's coming together, and I hope you enjoy watching it unfold as well.
And really-- I can't say thank you enough for letting me know you enjoyed the book. It totally makes my day!!
