Hi Paul. This is one of several versions of this question. It’s very flattering and lovely that people want a return, but I can’t imagine anything worse than going back and undermining the setting, and ending up not only diminishing returns, but by the baleful magic of retrochronological encrappification, making the already-extant books drabber and worse by doing too many of the later ones. So the bar has to be high. I think it would be better to write too few than too many.
