Erik: Thanks for the comments.

On the length question, it's about 30,000 words per part (i.e. On the Threshold, Double Life, and so on), so we're up to about somewhere around 130-140,000 words published, which would be about 400 pages in paperback form.

Big Fantasy Doorstop novel, in other words.

The current plan will take it over 200,000 words; according to the word count feature I've written just over 195,000 words so far.
