Now that I've got The Price of Water and The Siberian Question out in the world,, the third book in The Hammurabi Series is underway, The Iranian Promise. Trump's war on Iran did cause me to pause for a month while the possibility of regime change hung in the air, but now that it seems all Trump's war with Iran will do is inflict more suffering on Iranians, cost the rest of world billions if not trillions of dollars and make the US look like a giant, flailing bully throwing its weight around without any strategic purpose. Anyway, I'm on track for a Thanksgiving 2026 release date, so fingers crossed!
