I"m reading that series in iBook format (Apple Books? Whatever they call it) and they send me a helpful email when the pre-order becomes available and that is often around 9 pm my time, just in time for me to start reading before bed and stay up too late reading...it's a pretty sweet set up, really
Exciting developments in this one! It's actually inspired me to start rereading in internal chronological order (including short stories when I already have them or can find them easily) and I just got up to Rosemary and Rue. I'm dithering about whether to listen to the audiobook or read the e-book. I think I want to listen but I am still listening to Sense and Sensibility so I will probably finish that first - the Dashwood girls' love lives just got interesting
Oh is there a new one out now? I'll have to go look....I'm cheap though, so will likely wait for the library. Or at least paperback prices.
Book #14, can you believe that?
Seriously, and i think we're up to 8 in Incryptid, and she's written, what, four other shorter series? Feed, Pandemic (?), the one with the children who go through doors, Sparrow Road and it's sequel. I'm probably even missing some.
I'm 37. When I was 21, I was still a beta reader for her (for two books that have never been published and were also great). Would have been published for the first time a couple years later. That tracks with one Toby book a year. But damn, that's about 2.5 books a year on average.
Eta I didn't even remember the awesome ones with the fairy tale detective service, the Velveteen books, etc. Jesus she is prolific.
Eta2: okay I looked it up. 48 books published since 2009. So that's actually a bit over 4.5 books published per year on average. I can't even. She clearly had a Toby backlog before getting a publishing deal because the first five were published on a twice a year schedule, March and September. Since then it's been once a year in September, with Incryptid taking the March spot.
I had to re-read the entire NewsFlesh trilogy when this pandemic hit, it's just so spot-on. Can't wait until we have quick viral testing devices like in that series. I also loved the Parasite/Symbiosis series, but not quite as much as the NewsFlesh series.
the one with the children who go through doors
WAYWARD CHILDREN WAYWARD CHILDREN WAYWARD CHILDREN.
Ahem. My favorite of her series, gosh, I wonder why.
The next Wayward Children will be Book 6. Her output is really quite implausible.
I need to read the ones after Come Tumbling Down.
That was #5, you may be all caught up until January. Not exactly a read them in order sort of series, necessarily, or a keep them in order in my head sort of series, certainly...even my phone is confused, it won't file In An Absent Dream with the rest for reasons of its own...
I just got offered a free ebook of a paranormal gay romance novel about a helicopter pilot and a were-seal. The first in a series!
