[Topher_Lydon] The Black Prince


Recommended Posts

Christopher, are you still out there???? If you are, I, for one, would dearly like to know if you are writing, rewriting or chucking this book? Please respond and let us know at least how you are doing. I know you are busy, but a quick word would be appreciated by all. I've just finished The Balance of Judgment and starting on The Fifth Column (again). I get so much more out of your books after I read them again.

Please, please...let us know!

I emailed Topher last week about the Black Prince and he had this to say, Hope it Helps.

Book Six is taking a long time to write as it needs to be done just right and I am being a perfectionist on it. It will come soon, but I just need to get it just so... otherwise it will be all wrong.

 

So bear with me.

 

thanks for your support

Topher Lydon

Hei Christopher,

 

 

First of all I've read your books a few years ago, back when they first came out. I was 18 years old back then, and I have to say that I loved them all. I never wrote you a line saying how much I liked them because I never thought that you would need another reader praising your work, but after writting a couple of stories I understood how important it is to have feedback. So, 6 years foward here I am saying that your two sagas are great and that I have a fan over here rooting for you.

The Carter saga was very important for me, since it was one of the first stories I found online that had a more realistic feel to it, I loved that both characters were flawed, that life wasn't peachy perfect and that at the end of the day they were simply two guys trying to survive. I only read the last one "Carter's Recourse" some years later since Medical School (and all the other *cough*important *cough* college stuff) took much of my time from reading, but I thought that it was very well done and with a very cleverly done ending.

About Falcon Banner,I must say that it took me some time to get into it, since Science Fiction was not my favourite topic, but you managed to make me read it and like it. It is very well writen, and I can't even imagine the work behind all the crafting of the worlds and characters that live on that Universe.

 

 

So I just want to drop a thank you for sharing your stories and writing with all of us. I know how hard it is to finish a new chapter/book so I'm patiently waiting for your next one. Keep up the great work =)

I agree with the others here that your writing has been amazing and I am so looking forward to the next book. Any idea on a possible release date, I'm so craving to know what happens next.?

Is there any progress to report on "The Black Prince"? The last thing I read the Excaliber was sitting on the ground with everyone stranded.... :unsure:

Christopher are you still out there? I hope you haven't stopped writing because you have a gift that should not go to waste. Please let me know if the Falcon series has ended, because I have never stopped looking for the next book. Thanks for all you do.

Your Fan,

Jason

I just started reading the series again and you got me hooked for the second time. Keep up the great writing and please let me know when the sixth book comes out. I'll be the first to purchase it.

 

Thanks

You know what, I am beginning to think Christopher has abandoned this story.  How long has it been? Over a year and a half since the last post from him and while I realize he had to redo the last book...oh, never mind, I'm just whining.  I'm afraid he's going to lose his audience if we don't get something pretty soon.  I would hate to see that happen, I love all his books.

Now that I've re-read the series in paperback again, I'm ready to throw my hat into the ring and bug Topher for an update!

 

Are we still on track, my friend? You've got at least one reader who's supporting you and looking forward to more of your work!

 

Also, if you need an editor I'm happy to offer my services!

 

Keep on chugging :-)

Hey bud,

 

I hope things are going well. I know a lot of people have already asked you about the next book, but I want to make sure you knew that there are a lot of dedicated fans out there waiting to see what comes next. We will wait as long as it takes, but I'm hoping its not to long.

 

If you need anything please let us know.

Life has seen fit to give me a year from hell.

 

A rather bitter break up, job loss... a rather trying time in China... and, not to forget, a person using my books as a way to steal personal information from me.

 

I've been through the wringer a bit lately.

 

Finding the time to write when I was going through what I was going through wasn't easy.

 

Putting a roof over my head, keeping food on the table, and trying my best to manage took priority.

 

I have not abandoned the series, I had to look at what was good for my immediate needs. I apologize that there is a delay, but my real life concerns took over.
