Hello michael, I am a new fan of yours and greetings from Chile. I read your 2 books that are in Spanish (The Crown Conspiracy and Avempartha) and I loved them, the problem is that nothing has been translated into Spanish since 2012. The question is if you know if the publisher will translate it at some time ?. I would love to finish Revelations and start Chronicles and The Legends of the First Empire. Cheers

Hey Gonzalo, I'm so glad you have enjoyed the books so far. When it comes to foreign translations, I've accepted every deal that comes my way. And there has been a lot of them -- probably more than 100 to date. I've not kept track of which books are translated to what languages so I'm not 100% sure if the publisher who picked up that version did so for just a few books, or the whole series. Sometimes, they don't acquire more books until the see how the sales are going on initial releases. Other times, it's just a matter of the translation taking some time. The best thing to do, is to send an inquiry to the publisher. If they are planning more, they'll let you know. If they haven't, well, correspondence from readers might help to sway their opinion and get other books produced. Here's hoping!! Otherwise, I'm afraid you have to resort to the English language version. It seems as your bilingual. I know you may prefer the Spanish version, but as I said, it's not me that is holding up the translated version.

First, I want to say that Royce and Hadrian are some of the most fun characters I’ve read. Can’t wait to read more. Me and some friends have been publishing our books as a team. We have good feedback so far, but are struggling to find readers. Do you have any advice for us? What were some of the challenges when you first started and how did you overcome them? Anything you share will be much appreciated.

Hi Mike Your collection of the Riyria series is confusing with some books in, some out and some in more than one series. I don't want to miss any books just because they are not in the series I chose. So my question. Would you recommend a single reading list of all the Riyria books to accomplish this ? Are some books stand alone ? Thanks Softbananas

I read all of the Riyira books, and I liked most of them and it was time worth spent. But, even after a year and finishing all the books in the chronological order, I still am not sure whether Rhen (forgive me if I'm spelling or writing the name wrong; it has been a long time) from The Crown Tower is pickles or not. So, who is he?
