Will the book of the ancestor get a sequel? I feel like that story wasn't quite finished? I tried some quick googles but can't seem to find if anything has been said on the subject.

Have you read all of Mark's books?

Ah ok, well you have the tie-in with:

Also the new book series I wouldn't be surprised if it is connected in some way with:

Quote

The Academy of Kindness exists to create agents of retribution, cast in the image of the Furies—known as the kindly ones—against whom even the gods hesitate to stand. Each year a hundred girls are sold to the Academy. Ten years later only three will emerge.

Sweet Mercy / Academy of Kindness plus there is a similar named one in the Jorg series too. Unless Mark just likes that naming scheme.
