Maybe he doesn't have the heart to kill Alvin, or maybe he fears that he'd get carried away with emulating the life of Joseph Smith.
OSC has said that he mostly writes the Alvin books whimsically, using whatever ideas he had had recently, so maybe nothing good has popped into his mind. I'd hate to read a book by OSC that the author doesn't care about, so it's for the better that Card is taking his time. Lanfear Member Member He said it was in the works. JennaDean Member Member I always thought Crystal City was the last. He talked about two other books in the pastwatch series, and the last alvin maker book.
That would be a huge disappointment, not to mention unexpected. I don't mind waiting for it as long as I know it will eventually be written.
Any one of the Ender's Shadows books could have ended and I would have felt the story wrapped up well enough. Each next book just felt like a bonus. However Alvin has been building up to a crescendo for Alvin Maker or whatever it will be called and to not finish it at this point would be a huge cop out. Especially if the excuse is that "its just too hard" or "you know the rest of the story already".
No I don't know the rest of the story. Sure it may parralel the life and death of Joseph Smith, but its not Joseph Smith, and sure killing off your main charachter is hard, but this is the man that gave us Lost Boys for crying out loud.
What could possibly have been harder than writing that? OSC has been very clear about that. I imagine Master Alvin is up soon on his to-do list, because I seem to recall it's one of the books OSC's under contract to write. Also, of course, there're the teeming hordes that wish to read it.
Sean Monahan Member Member It's show 18, and the interview starts at about 57 minutes into the episode: OSC talking about the Alvin Maker series : "No, no, in fact I just did the 6th book, but there will be a 7th and that's the final one. It's definitely done because at the end of the 7th one, which will be called 'Master Alvin', Alvin will be very, very dead. Thoroughly, completely dead. Not like Ender in 'Children of the Mind'.
He's completely dead, so that's how people will know the series is over. Unnameworthy New Member Member Jarhead Member Member So add me to the witness count. I mean I realize that it probably is in the works, but not seeing that on this site, and not knowing any dates, any rough timeline or even a ballpark guess is starting to kill me. Tara Member Member Authors write books when they choose to write them.
Whining about the fact that they haven't yet done so doesn't actually encourage them nearly as much as you might think. And I don't feel that OSC is letting me down I'm just so excited for the last book Guess I'll just shut up and wait now.
