First, update on my blog about my current writing projects + when CotA 3 will be done. http://skyladawncameron.com/blog/sotu2011 Second, read on for a quick note about what this series is--and isn't--for newbies.

1. It was never written as YA. I know some people labelled it as such because the characters started at around 16/17. That's fine. But the series was intended to follow them until their early 20s. If Buffy was YA, fine, this was YA--but that's not how I wrote it so yes there are mature themes, a lot of swearing, sexy times (in part three in particular) and such. Michael is very much NOT a young adult and from part two on he's a POV character. The series is rated R for a reason.

2. There is a complete arc in each of the books but they're not intended as standalone. There is an overriding plot reaching from one through to the end of five. This means that mysteries and threads introduced in one, in some cases, won't be addressed until much later. It's a serial. This might be confusing to those coming at it after the initial run when books are available for download, but I'm hoping some will do a quick google ahead of time and hit this page. If I can keep people from going into the story with the expectation that the first book is standalone or not understanding the serial aspect, I'm happy to as I'd rather people not read something they won't enjoy.
