Glad to hear that it's still in your plans, as it sounds like an interesting setting.
Obviously I don't know the story behind the decision to not publish this new book, but I am disappointed. I am of the opinion that works should not be kept away from the public even if they are controversial. The best way to show support for an idea, or to not show support, is to choose to buy, or not to buy a book. There are plenty of authors that I choose not to support, but I think they should still write what they want as much as they want.
I am curious to know if any of the people that came out so vocally against this book had actually read an ARC of it, or an early draft. My guess is not. I wish that more people would actually try something before railing against it. I know, I dream big. I hope to read this book sometime, and until then I will reread the greek trilogy.
