My name is Andrew Hunter. I am an artist and writer living in the sun-seared savannas of Texas with my wife, three kids, and a cat.

I’ve loved fantasy since my earliest bedtime stories of Tolkien and Lewis and came of age in the worlds of Lovecraft, Gygax, and Frazetta. I’ve vinted wine, shoveled offal, kept an inn, and made video games. How this qualifies me to write books about dragons and draw pictures of elves, I have no idea. I do have a couple of college degrees in that sort of thing, I suppose, but mainly I just sit down and start filling pages with all this nonsense.

How many books will there be in the Songreaver's Tale Series? And when will the next book be released?

I'm afraid I don't know yet how many books it will take to get to the center of the Songreaver's Tale. I'm working from a very loose outline for this series, and mainly using discovery writing to move the plot. While I've spent years building the world they live in, the characters always seem to surprise me when it comes time to go exploring in it.

As for a release date, I'm doing my best to finish the first draft of book 5 by the end of this summer, and, if I manage that, I'm really hoping to have the release ready in time for the holidays.

Thank you for reading!(less)

Thank you very much for asking me about the Songreaver's Tale. At the moment, I'm about halfway through writing the next book, and all the loose ends are starting to come together into a great big ball of tangliness. I'm afraid I've gotten pretty behind in my writing schedule, due to other work demands, but I hope to have everything back on schedule, come wintertime.

Thanks again for your support and interest in the series. It means a great deal to me!
