The Crown Duel books

Crown Duel is set in a world called Sartorias-deles, in this world's modern day. Here is its map. Below is how the various stories fit together. The long version is here. (Warning: it is a doc file as I don't know how to html it.)

Short version.

Written when I was a kid:
• The adventuring girls whose stories begin in CJ's First Notebook: Over the Sea. At age eight I starting writing these. The gang of girls had an underground hideout! They weren't rescued by boys when they adventured! They didn't have to grow up! These are the CJ's Notebooks series, Mearsies Heili Bounces Back, Poor World, and Hunt Across Worlds. There is also a CJ segment in Senrid.
• Vidanric of Crown Duel has his own story, A Stranger to Command. Vidanric meets Senrid there, whose own story is really four shorter pieces comprising an arc. (See above about CJ's Notebooks)
• At the other end of the continent are The Spy Princess (Viking, Summer 2012) and Sartor.
• These three strands culminate in Fleeing Peace.

Written when I was an older teen:
• Us Against Them, Fire Jive, and Dark Side of the Sun, set when the kids I wrote about were teens (villains as well as heroes)
• The romances, Crown Duel, The Trouble With Kings, Sasharia En Garde, and Now Serves an Old Creed

Written as an adult, but about teens:
• Two longish stories about Vidanric's and Mel's kids--"Beauty", with Elestra, and "Court Ship," with Raec--are published together in Remalna's Children. There is also a story in The Feathered Edge. There will be more about them as a family in . . .

Written as an adult for older readers:
• The characters I've been following all my life come of age as war hits in Ship Without Sails
• The historical ones, that is, Inda and Banner of the Damned

Some have asked me about fan language.
