Leave the man alone for a while, and JS Morning comes out with another set of books to explore the Black Ocean universe, and it’s a prequel too. Looking forward seeing where this goes, I’ve enjoyed all of the other books in the Universe.

That said, if Morin was going to write a prequel, couldn’t he have gone to the days of Merlin. I think it would be a hoot to read a fantasy series about the “true” nights of the round table and the shenanigans they got themselves into, and how Merlin had to step in to save the day. Series can skip forward to various other wizards in the Black Ocean history, to include the first wizard to Astral Drop.
Just a thought from the peanut gallery.
