BECAUSE YOU’LL ASK:

16. INVISIBLE MONSTERS and THE VALLEY OF THE YUNWI TSUNSDI: The first is the next Levi novel. The latter is a Levi novella. Working on both simultaneously. Now that SUBURBAN GOTHIC and DISSONANT HARMONIES are finished, they are my main daily priority. No release dates or info (other than Bad Moon Books has the rights to the novel hardcover).

17. THE FALL: The final novel in THE RISING series. I wrote a bit more about it here recently. There’s a goal over on my Patreon that we are currently at 54% of. When we hit that goal, I’ll begin posting chapters as a serial over there. Since I’m already at 40,000 words, that won’t be a problem.

18. BENEATH THE LOST LEVEL: I expect to finish this one by December, which means a summer 2021 release.

19. A LITTLE HELL FROM MY FRIENDS: THE COMPLETE SHORT FICTION OF BRIAN KEENE Vol. 4: I’m sitting on this one because I want to wait and see how the pandemic impacts the releases of everything above. If I need to fill a hole, I’ll release it. If not, then look for it in early 2021.
