I just noticed that Jan Kotouc is not contributing to this book - He is the writer who was supposed to drive forward the story about Silesia (He wrote the Silesian Command in WoW #7). I wonder if his absence has a deeper meaning.

I believe RFC has said Jan’s working on novel length in Selesia

Correct! :D I've contributed a Saganami short story to the anthology, and Saganami #1 is my next novel-length project.

Cool! Looking forward to it!

Any chance you can tell us when we can expect the novels?

It's hard to say for certain this far out in the schedule, but Saganami #1 is contracted to be turned in by November 2026, so I think Baen is shooting for a late 2027 release. Saganami books #2 and #3 are due in 2027 and 2028, so my guess is Baen wants to release one Saganami book each year from 2027 through 2029.

Again, though, that's just me making educated guesses based on the dates in my contract.
