Apologies for my absence - with the gap between books 6 and 7 as well as real-life stress I'm afraid I forgot to keep checking for updates. I'm glad I finally remembered!
I really like Sand Orc court setting so far, and I'm eagerly awaiting the hinted-at power struggles. The decision to split up Elfhild and Elffled was surprising but ultimately I'm excited to see where it leads, and how their characters develop independently of each other. I'm especially interested in seeing how Elfhild's Cursed Maiden persona affects both the orcs and herself. Definitely an intriguing start to Book 7!
Finally, I've discovered a slight issue with Chapter 2 - the Next/Previous chapter buttons lead to their opposite.

I haven't been posting updates as often, because the beginning of Book 7 was still a bit rough in places and I wanted to polish it up a bit more. Some of the Circles books have been thoroughly revised and edited and are second and third versions, but Books 7 and 8 were never books that Angmar and I went back and edited.
Book 7 is very much Elfhild-centric. There are a lot of new characters as well who all have stories to tell. Also, Khaldun will be another major character in this book.
It was in this book that Angmar decided to start experimenting more with plotlines. Over time, "The Circles" had taken a different course from the original concept, and Angmar wanted to explore new ideas. Instead of being a travelogue-based journey through Mordor, the story became more adventure-based, with various side plots.
Thanks for letting me know about the chapter buttons!
