Your stories have renewed my enthusiasm for trying to understand ancient times. I love the humor in them. I plan to keep reading them as long as you write them. Will you be expanding beyond Greek settings?

Gary Corby Hi! I'm glad you like the books. I have another (contemporary) project underway at the moment, then I'm back to Nico & Diotima.

It depends what you mean by Greek setting. Nico & Diotima traveled to Egypt and Libya in The Singer From Memphis. So that's not Greek, but it's obviously the same time period.

There are a whole lot of other places Nico & Diotima could (and will) end up. The ancient Greeks made it to some pretty interesting locales. But I won't be doing another ancient series outside this timeline. Classical Greece is more than enough for one writer.

Ancient mysteries are their own little genre and there are a slew of writers working in ancient Rome, for example. If you like my stuff, try Ruth Downey for Roman Britain.

Thanks for asking!

Gary
