This week, I turned in the revisions for Queen of Death, the third in my Lost Mark trilogy of novels for Eberron. My editor, Mark Sehestedt, only asked for minor changes, and I burned through them.
I commented to Mark that it stunned me how far the trilogy had deviated from my original pitch. Few recognizable bits of the original remained. The story ended up surprising me as I went along, and I enjoyed it all the more for that. I hope those who read it feel the same.
