John McNichol (now added to the sidebar) posted this good news for fans of Tripods Attack!:
I am now working on the 2nd draft of the Sequel, tentatively titled “The Emperor of North America.”
Gilbert returns to his American homeland, Herb and Gil become separated in more ways than one, and both boys face temptations, trials and dangers in an attempt to survive the onslaught of the self-declared Emperor.
Here’s hoping you enjoy it as much as the last one!
If you haven’t read Tripods, I highly recommend it. Not my usual genre, but I have both a weakness for all things GKC, and a boy who enjoys the normal quota of aliens, slime, plots-to-takeover-earth, etc. Real win-win in the literature department.
(The Curt Jester approves, too, if that helps you decide.)
