Dear Mr.Korman

I've always loved your books Mr.Korman and recently I have just finished the Swindle Series and Hypnotists Series. I also read Restart and many others and I'm love your books. Of all these books I like the Swindle and Hypnotists Series the most and I've found that there aren't any new books upcoming. So just asking is there any plans for a new book in these two series or is the series just ended because while Hypnotists seemed pretty final the Swindle Series feels like there are many more things to explore upon.

A Reader,

Michael

Hi, Michael,

Thanks for posting. I'm pleased to hear that my books have been making a hit with you.

You're right about THE HYPNOTISTS. It was meant to be a trilogy. And as much as I enjoyed writing the SWINDLE series, there were 8 books, and I felt the topics were pretty much explored. There just doesn't seem to be the enthusiasm for more right now.

I hope you'll continue reading my stuff. Watch for THE FORT, due out on June 28th. It's my Book #100! Lots of celebrating going on around that one!

Thanks again for your comments. -----Gordon Korman-----

I wish there would be more Swindle books, but I get it. It is such a good series though. :( (Also I love Ben.)
