A while back, it was posted that Guardian Thunder, Volume 5 in the Guardian Series, would be released in 2016.
Due to the complex nature of the on-going mystery, Guardian Thunder has required more time to write than I had first imagined.
The critical editing process is now in full swing. Transforming any manuscript into a finished publication requires the combined effort of a skilled team, and our working goal is to have Guardian Thunder released prior to the Christmas holidays.
I am genuinely humbled by the warmth and interest which everyone has shown toward me and my many friends, especially Shey, Roan, Zorn, Susie, Gepeto, William, Sheba, Kellon, Lan, Amada, Chandara, Elayne, McRoy, and more recently Shanti. Although imaginary, my friends have also proven to be the good friends of many of my readers, and that is the best possible reward that can be granted to a weaver of tales. My hope remains everyone will enjoy the Guardian Series as much or more than I enjoyed weaving it.

"Guardian Thunder" is the fifth book of the Guardian series, and it is also the natural conclusion of the series. The tale is now complete. Like all good endings, it offers many possible beginnings. Still, like Frodo, I have also learned caution. A beginning sentence, like Frodo's first step on a road, can lead to a most unanticipated and astonishing tale.
The mystery resumes in Guardian Thunder where Guardian Strike paused. At the beginning of Guardian Thunder, Shey, Roan, and Zorn are, as usual, in big trouble…
"Racing before oblivion, Guardian Scout Ship Shey was fleeing, seeking survival; above her was an infinite dome of utter black pierced by brilliant stars, below was the ominous dark bulk of an alien world, ahead were immense towering storm clouds laced with web-like streamers of brilliant lightning, and behind her was onrushing death."
