One thing readers hate is not being able to find a complete list of an author’s published books so here it is, a list of my different series.
Paranormal Crime Books:
Fantasy Books:
King Rolen’s Kin trilogy ( 2010)
King Breaker KRK4
(Currently writing the fourth and last book in the KRK series)
Just finished The Usurper,enough already with teasing us with the possibility of byrrade(Byren+Orrade)we need some full frontal snogging with plenty of tongue or betterr yet a full blown affair(pretty please with cherry on top).please?
LOL. I really don’t know, DG. It’s up to them.
Sorry DG but I think it is pretty obvious that Byren isn’t into Orrade like that. If he was I think he would have more personal conflict about his feelings towards Orrade, his sister and of course F. I can’t wait for the second series to come so bring on KRK2!!!!! Any chance of some teasers Ms. Daniells? Something to hold us over?

I loved the outcast chronicles anymore coming???
Hi Dennis, I find the world of the Outcast Chronicles very easy to slip into. I find myself waiting at traffic lights thinking – What will happen to Ronnyn? Will Sorne find happiness. – as if they are my friends.
We writers are tragic people.
also how can i get a hold of the last t’en series i cant seem to find them anywhere or the usurper im having no luck
Hi Dennis, the original trilogy has sold out. I’m going to re-release it with new covers and a new trilogy name because T’En is hard to pronounce.

Hey Dennis,

Cheers, R
Thanks thats awesome. they are awesome idk if it possible but i would love an autograph…. desperate alliance is so hard to find lol i have all of the others now they are so addicting
Hi,
I just finished The Outcast Chronicles and I was wondering if there will be anymore books to those. Thanks for your time.

Hi Liz,
I have plans to write more. I just have to find a way to do without sleep.LOL
Excellent! I was just going to ask the same question: will you be writing a continuation of the Outcast Chronicles.
I have just finished reading the trilogy, finally, and between this and the original series, I love the world and want more more more
So you read the original trilogy, Malini? You must have bought copies years ago. It’s sold out now. That’s why I’m re-releasing it.
I haven’t actually read any of your books – I tripped over them the other day at the bookstore, and since I’m on a bit of a limited budget, added them to my list to research when I got home. Which led me here!! (No offense – I know you make money doing this, but I LOVE books – my boyfriend is already gritting his teeth cuz I’m gonna need ANOTHER bookcase… he’s more tolerant of my recent foray into ebooks… go figure! Bottom line – gotta watch the bottom line to buy the couple hundred titles I’m working on acquiring…)
OK, nuff of that. What I’m curious about – you’ve listed all the books you’ve written – but I’m getting the impression each of the KRK sets are from slightly different time periods – as the author, could you list them both in what you feel the preferred reading order is and (if it’s different) the chronological reading order?
Thanks!!

Hi Fyre,
This is a really good question, which coincidentally someone on GoodReads just asked me. Both your comments arrived via email at the same time. I’m going to do a ‘flow chart’ of where the different trilogies fit into their world time lines.
Many thanks for your suggestion.
Cheers,
Rowena
PS. if you love reading and know your genre really well, offer to read for an award. I read for Australia’s Aurealis Awards for several years, which was a good way to keep up with what was being published. Another way, it to start a review blog. Authors are always looking for reviewer for their books. Concentrate on the genre you love, put up a few reviews of the books you’ve already read and before long, authors will be beating a path to your blog, offering you books!
Hello There Ms. Daniells!
I thoroughly enjoyed the King Rolen’s Kin series, and am waiting excitedly for the next installment. I especially admired how you’ve developed your characters; both the players and the landscape is so rich and palpable. Any advice on how to flesh out the background of characters without being verbose? I want to give readers an understanding of who my characters are, the land in which they live in, the laws/rules they must abide by, and for it all to make sense but I don’t want them skipping pages waiting for me to in effect, ‘get back to the point’! Thank you!
Hi TS,
The trick is to keep the narrative driving forward while revealing just enough so that the reader can make sense of what’s going on. I like to use the ’13th Warrior’ technique. (Did you see that move?) You take someone from outside the society and drop them into it and when something strange/different happens they have to ask what’s going on. After all, the locals will all know why we pretend there’s a guy in a red suit with a white beard breaking into houses to leave presents under trees.
The introduction of a very different society while maintaining narrative drive was very challenging when I wrote The Outcast Chronicles.
I always come back to: Tell the reader WHAT they NEED to know, WHEN they NEED to know it. I guess the trick is knowing when and what.
Cheers, Rowena
PS. There’s a pile of links to writing articles here: http://www.rowena-cory-daniells.com/writing-craft/
Thanks a ton, that was so helpful! I’ll be sure to look at those links on your site…
Just finished reading the Outcast Triology. It was an excellent storyline that had me devouring all three books with excitement and pleasure
Will there be a fourth Outcast book and how long will the wait be? Cheers and keep up the great work!
Hi Arvek,
So glad you enjoyed the OC. I’m very attached to this world and these characters and I do plan tow rite more. It will be a matter of juggling my day job and commitments.
Thanks!
Rowena
Hi, just finished The Usurper and I love the chronicles of King Rolen’s Kin! Can’t wait for KingBreaker to see what happens with Byren and Florin, Fyn and Isolt, Piro and Tyro(?) and all other characters. I am currently ripping my hair out trying to download TheKing’s Man. Normally I would not read eBooks, but I saw the name Garzik and now the read is a must!
I was wondering when KRK4 is due? I read late 2013(quite to long time in my opinion!) and was wondering if a month is decided?
And if there is any chance for some teasers regarding KRK4?
Best Regards
New devoted reader!
Hi Murre123 (is that short for Murray?),
Glad you enjoyed KRK. I’m neck deep in KRK 4 right now. Solaris haven’t given me a month for publication, all I know is end of 2013.
Are you having trouble downloading The King’s Man?
Cheers, R
A randomly given nickname for Marius:) I see you are from brisbane aswell, just spent 6months there, just fyi.
Cheers for response! I will be the first norwegian ordering your book the second it is available! Can’t wait to see what happens with all the love birds(pica pairs to be?)!
I think it is just my knowledge on technology giving me a hard time downloading The King’s Man! Wich I also cannot wait to read! I must admit I was rather sad when I was on the last 50pages or soo of The Usurper and Garzik still had not made a heroic entry!:)
Best Regards Norwegian fan numero uno!

What were you doing in Brisbane, Marius?
If you look at the dedication in the front of The King’s Man you’ll see why I had to write Garzik’s story.
I was studying culture:) Tho I did not find krk until I visited a random small bookstore in Bali:p
haha, I guess I owe your friend one!
We worked together and she said, But Garzik can’t be dead. And I realised he wasn’t.
Brisbane is a long way to come to study culture.
I agree! Garzik was really cool character! I liked how he and Piro went together!
Long way from home, wich i really loved:) Don’t know if you have ever been in the northlands, but in winter I’m used to -30C soo 25+C is a good change:)
-30 C sounds very exotic to me.
