The Guild Saga, by John Doody

These are the six titles of The Guild Saga, planned by me, John Doody: Book 1, The Wonk Decelerator; Book 2, The Late, Great Benjamin Bale; Book 3, Return of the Crimson Witch; Book 4, The First Wonk War; Book 5, Vengeance Is Mine; Book 6, The Technophobes (could be 2 novels).

Book 1, The Wonk Decelerator, should be out any day. Book 2 is under contract and in editing with eTp. I'm working on Book 3.

I definitely plan 1 prequel in this series: Thorn (about Maggie's past). I'm considering a possible prequel trilogy for the future, about the three starships that started it all. It took them thirty-five years to find the first hospitable world. I reserve the right to change any or all titles.

Galleys for The Wonk Decelerator

Today I received the final proof of the Wonk Decelerator for inspection. I'll probably send it back tomorrow and we'll see if it's available for Christmas. It will be close. The way things look, it is quite possible that the first 3 books of the Guild Saga will be out next year very close to one another. That's a neat thought. One I'm enjoying very much!
