The confirmation is finally public on my new novel: Warring States [link to book order page - note that ISBN, people]. Says Lars:
Warring States takes place in China, 1900, and concerns Cousin Octavia (the Faction Paradox member responsible for the fall of the Thirteen-Day Republic, as told in The Book of the War).I'll only add for now that this is the one I have muttered drunkly about over the last 18 months or more, and will contain the Last Empress, beseiged Boys Own Adventurers, the Red Lanterns and vaguely steampunk things. And a grrl with a shadow sabre.
It seems book contracts are like buses: you wait years and then two come along in the same week. The non-fiction book is signed, but not yet announced. Now, I'm off to drink an entire bottle of cava...
