Are you planning on writing a sequel to Jacob's Odyssey? Just curious! It's amazing so far, and I'm slowly reading it because I don't want it to end...

Russ Melrose Actually, no. It won't be a sequel (but take heart, the characters from Jacob's Odyssey may appear in the third novel) I am currently working on the second novel in the series. It will be called - Finding AJ. It takes place during the same apocalypse but has different characters, a different storyline, and a different locale. The second novel is about a former FBI agent who continues her search for a serial killer known as the Calligrapher despite the apocalypse. Her search leads her to a small town in southern Utah - called Gideon. If you're interested, I just posted the first chapter on my author website as a teaser. You can check it out here:

Now, as far as the characters from Jacob's Odyssey, they may be included in the third novel along with the characters from Finding AJ--at least those that manage to survive. I'm still mulling all this over in my mind. Nothing is set in concrete as of this point in time. Hope that answers your question. And I'm looking forward to your review. Thanks.

Russ
