Thanks, Ren. I enjoyed writing my dragons & am quite proud of them, so it’s good to hear from others who enjoyed them too

I am quite saddened to hear the low sales as Dragon Queen was quite excellent. It is truly difficult to get ahold of your books in the ‘States with any efficiency, and I am waiting quite impatiently for the next dragon book, and The Royalist. I hope to see many more of your novels join my bookshelves and digital collection right along side the Thief-Taker, Memory of Flames, and Dragon Queen. I actually liked the first book. I just happened to stumble across The Adamantine Palace at a local library and couldn’t get enough. I loved Jehal’s life and death, though I was quite sad to see him go, as he was one of my favourite characters. it was quite a long wait searching across my state’s libraries to find the others before buying them all myself last year in digital form. I would love to get hardbacks of all of them, call me a traditionalist. Thanks for all the great enjoyment you’ve brought me Mr. Stephen Deas! In return I try to get all my friends and acquaintances to get your books too.

Hi Claire – thank you. I guess for many people the shallowness of the characters in book one was too much to get past; but thank you for the reviews and recommendations

I can’t believe the dragon books don’t sell. I admit I struggled with the stupidity, wilful ignorance and self-absorption of the characters in book 1 but they’ve gone from strength to strength imho. Loving the new trilogy and I can’t wait for the final book. I’ve done my good reads reviews and recommended to my SFF loving friends.

Sorry to hear about it, all the bad news and stuff. I hope this new year will be more benign to you, and that you’ll come up with new cool ideas for your books.
