Hi Ken. You are a master of sci fi. I have just finished the ascension series and desperately want to know what happens next. Your characters Kaylen and Zak and the AI are compelling. Have you started on the next series of Zak as head of Dux corporation?
You are a brilliant author and I am so convinced by your stories I feel they are almost reality. I agree with others who have said they should be made as TV Series. If they can finance drivel like Firefly or The 100 they should finance your books for filming.
Keep up the good work Ken your talent is unrivalled.
Hi Peter,
Thank you so much I really appreciate such high praise. Thanks for letting me know of your continued interest in the Ascension series. I haven’t started a follow-on series for Ascension. My writing schedule is booked for the rest of 2020, but there is always 2021.
Ken
Ken,
I fully agree with the requests for more Ascension! Those characters are certainly compelling.
Thank you,
Another Bob
i absolutely agree. please continue writing!
Ken,
Hope you are well. Just finished Ascension. I must know if you are going to do a follow up series to it ?? I’m hoping so, I need more ! If you don’t sleep there should be plenty of time to write more this year!!
Who needs sleep anyway!
Thanks for letting me know of your continued interest in the Ascension series.
I’ve read the First Colony series. Great!!
I just finished the Ascension series Excellent!! I’m looking for another book to this
series for at least several spin off series.
Keep ’em coming.
Hi Bob,
Thanks, I’m glad you liked both series. More is coming for First Colony. Thanks for letting me know of your interest in seeing more of the Ascension series. I do think about those characters from time to time.
Ken
hi! i have finished all of the first colony books so far, i can’t wait for the rest. i’m infatuated with your writing and just need to tell you that. Conner is a big part in controlling my anxiety, i connect to him like myself. i am currently working on my own sci-fi book and am excited. thank you
Aamani
Hi Ken, First let me say, I absolutely love your First Colony series. I’m currently reading Acheron Inheritance and have read all of your previous books. Thank you for all the great reads! Anna
Hi Anna,
Thank you for your kind words.
Ken
Hello Ken,
Just finished the 10 first colony books. Wanted to say the series was an enjoyable read! Looking forward to the next books in the series.
Jerry
Hi Jerry,
Thank you so much. I’m glad you liked it. I’m hard at work on book 11.
Thanks,
Ken
Hey Ken,
Do you have any fan art (or any art at all) from the Ascension Series or the First Colony Series you could share with us? I loved both series and would love to see how others imagined the stories in their mind.
Best,
Patrick
PS: As a fellow long islander, I loved you paying homage to NY pizza and bagels! I live in Charleston now and aside from family, that is what I miss most!
Hi Patrick,
I just have the book covers, but I have gotten inspiration from concept art. I’ll put some of those together for a future blog post. I haven’t gotten any fan art.
I miss NY bagels. I live in PA and can get good pizza here, but he bagels aren’t the same. The other thing I miss are delicatessens. Deli sandwiches were the best. My wife and I have been to Charleston a couple of times. I can’t remember the name of it but there is a really good mustard barbecue sauce there.
Thanks,
Ken
I noticed your 12th book in the First Colony series is coming out, that’s great but I listen to all your books on Audible and I don’t see the 11th book yet even in upcoming books, please check on this. Thank You
Hi Robert,
The audiobook for Invasion – First Colony Book 11 won’t be out until April.
Thanks,
Ken
Thanks Ken for the heads up
It’s april Ken. Desperately waiting for invasion audio book. Hope it’s coming out soon. Love all your book!!
Thanks
Please let me know in what order I should be reading your e books.
Hi Marco,
I would suggest starting with the series that interest you the most.
First Colony is about humanity’s first interstellar colony. First book in series is called Genesis.
Ascension is a series about humanity’s first alien contact. First book in the series is called Star Shroud.
Federation Chronicles is a series set thousands of years in the future after humanity has spread throughout the galaxy.
Kind regards,
Ken
Hi Anzu,
Yeah, me too. It’s being recorded and should be available in May.
Thanks,
Ken
Hi Ken , I wondered when you were planning to write the sequel to ‘Haven of Shadows’ ? I really enjoyed it and it was great to return to the world of Shandara, I would love to read what happens next. Really enjoying your new Acheron series and First Colony continues to be brilliant.
Hi Chris,
Thanks for reading my books. I do plan to write a sequel to Haven of Shadows, but it won’t get put on the schedule until sometime 2022.
Ken
Hi Ken, great books! I loved the First colony series, the Ascension, and the Acheron series as well. I cannot wait for the new first colony book, book 12, and what aliens cause problems for the humans. I would love to see what happens with earth and we know they will develop FTL travel. You know they developed worm hole tech, then FTL Alcubierre drive will soon follow!
I have to say Conner Gates is in the league of Captain Kirk and Picard, Commodore Eric Weston, Alex Racine!
My vote is for the Federation Chronicles Book 3! Just finished book 2 and I’m keen to see where it goes!
Ken, I’m knew to the SciFi genre and your First Colony series was my first foray into your writing and I AM HOOKED!!! I don’t know if I can wait until April 2022 to continue the Connor Saga. I love what you do. You have a new fan in me for sure.
Hi Jared,
Thank you so much, I really appreciate it.
Ken
can’t wait for book 13 in first colony series, i see the paper, kindle versions, when can we see the audiobook version?
Hi Nir,
The audiobook for Infinity will be out by around the middle of May.
Ken
It has been said before that Ken you are an awesome writer and the First Colony series is over the top. The story and characters are so real that I feel that I am walking along side them. So compelling are these that I find myself with feelings of joy and pride when they accomplish their goals. But also I find myself crying over a lost like when Connor lost his former Ghost team mates. Now I am 3/4 way through #14 and you are going to make wait till December for the continuing story of Connor, Sean, Ethan and the rest. But really thanks for the great adventure.
Hi ken I was wondering when you will be getting back to Shandara they are some of my favorite books. Thanks look forward to it
Hi Brandon,
Thank you so much for your kind words. I’m glad you enjoyed the Safanarion Order. It was a fun series to write. I don’t have plans to expand the series at this time.
Ken
Hey Ken, I just wanted to drop in and tell you how much I’ve enjoyed all of your books! The First Colony series is way up there, and some of my favourite reads (listens – all of your narrator picks are spot on too). I find that most of the time when authors get this far into the series everything starts to feel a bit stale, so I LOVE how you’ve introduced new characters to keep things fresh but still connected. It may just be recency bias, but I think the last few books have been the best in the series! Especially Impulse and Expedition Earth.
I also echo the other comments here asking for more Ascension, as it’s my favourite series of yours. I hope you have more stories to tell from this universe.
Thanks for all you do.
Hi Morgan,
Thank you so much for your kind words, I’m glad you’ve enjoyed my work. I really make an effort to make each book in a series unique (Thanks for noticing that =)
Ken
Hello,
First off I love all your series, usually due to having to multitask (kid keeps me busy) audiobooks is where I can take in your masterpieces! I was wondering if Fallen Earth (First Colony Book 15) is coming to Audiobook soon. I just started listening to Space Raiders – Book 3: Dark Menace, so I still have something. 🙂 Again thank you for all you do and your narrator’s work.
Hi Caleb,
Thank you for your kind words I really appreciate it. Yeah, Fallen Earth is coming out on Audible next month. Probably by mid April.
Ken
Ken, I really enjoy your writing, you are definitely on of my favorite authors.
In the meanwhile waiting for more books, can you recommend any other authors? , that has inspired you or have similar style?
Hi Jakob,
Thank you so much. I can absolutely recommend other authors. In no particular order: Joshua Dalzelle, M.R. Forbes, Mark Wayne, McGinnis, Vaughn Heppner, S.H. Jucha, and JN Chaney has a ton of cowritten books that readers enjoy.
Enjoy,
Ken
Just finished reading your First Colony series up to and including book 16. What a ride! Plot, characters, dilemmas, action, choices – all are top notch. Waiting patiently for book 17 which I’m sure will be a great read. Thank you for your stories!
Hi Will,
Thank you so much for your kind words. I’m glad you’ve enjoyed the series as much as you have. Book 17 will be out by the end of the month.
Kind regards,
Ken
Have you given up on the broken crown trilogy
Hi, Ken!
Just finished Book 17, not realizing I had come to the end of those published so far. Sadly it is at a “cliffhanger” break point, which is never comfortable for me he reader. (It always feels that the story is still running in background, with the characters acting and interacting, but we just can’t see what’s going on.)
Looking forward to the rest of this series, but as we both know each book takes much longer and much more work for the author than the reader. We read faster than any writer can write.
Take care,
Tom
