New Fantasy Site

Darragh Murray posted this note about his new website, currently in development:

Hello, I have finally put up the very-very-very-beta version of my fantasy site

it has a few authors on it, and my views on em, plus some links, but the main attraction to most of you Feistians will be the incomplete Feist glossary of characters/places/etc please note that this glossary is very timeconsuming and I have only glossified all of SoaDQ, RoaMP, and a bit of RAGe on the PAGE (even though on paper I have done more than half the REF book collection) - NOTE MAJOR CHARACTERS HAVEN'T BEEN ADDED YET as they require extra info

Congratulations!

I want to send out my congratulations and best wishes to long-time list member Richard Williamson and his wife, who gave birth to boy on Friday. May he never have his father's looks (but perhaps his wit) :)

Tear of the Gods Tease

Ray hinted at the plot of Tear today:

Anyway, a war in the east would have suited Sidi's plans far better than a war with Queg or Kesh.

But then, I'm not telling everything just yet.

Conclave and Jigsaw Lady Tidbits

One of the features on new Krondor website is a short interview with Ray. Here is what he had to say about Conclave of Shadows:

Conclave of Shadows is the next 'down the timeline' series. It's set in the Eastern Kingdoms and will be about half-way between the 'high fantasy' of the Riftwar and the 'court intrigue' of the Empire Series in tone. More I won't say, except to mention the name of the central character of the first book, a tribal youngster named Talon of the Silver Hawk.

On The Jigsaw Lady, a science-fiction novel Ray has wanted to do for a while, he said this:

Jigsaw Lady is the working title of a science fiction novel I've had in my head for darn near fifteen years. I think I'll start work on it next year (in all my spare time) but I'd like to get it finished some day.
