Jim is still hoping to have it out in 2015. This doesn't mean it will for sure be done with enough time to hit the shelves before Christmas, but it's a bit of hope and we'll see how the year actually plays out for Jim.

Jim released the first sentence of Peace Talks via Twitter for our speculation and torment:



"The next book will take place pretty much not too long after the end of this previous one. Normally, there's more or less a year in between them because there's more or less a year in between them and it's just simpler for me, but this one will be, I think there's only - only about three months have gone by. We'll start it in the middle of the next Summer where, you know, Harry is living with his daughter and trying to be a dad while all of this stuff goes down. On the other hand, Maggie does have this big dog and if you want to mess with Maggie you've got to get through the big dog."

"A summit of the world's supernatural powers is being held to try to establish some sort of equilibrium and to get everything settled down in the wake of the vanishing of the red court. And I'm pretty sure everyone's going to sit down and have a nice cup of tea, there'll be a talk, and walk away holding hands."

So, we are looking at some supernaturally violent peace talks during which we will see more of Ebenezar, Thomas, Justine, the local Chicago crew, Molly, Maggie, Mouse and Harry trying to be a dad. And apparently these "peace talks" will be accompanied by property damage.
TORMENT?
Torment doesn't even begin to describe it!
And just when I was starting to really get excited about "Cinder Spires" too. Now "Peace Talks" is all I can think about!

And being "more supernaturally violent"?? Icing on the cake!
While it's great to have a couple of "Empire Strikes Back" style lead ups and characterizing stories, man I LOVE it when Jim goes full on action "Return of the Jedi" nonstop FUEGO!
