Now I'm puzzled here. I have read the entire Crown of Stars series, for what i thought to be.... so far....

Now I've been patiently waiting for the next instalment and to finally see what happens when the Elves land back on earth and the devastation that happens and is that young bloke who's a blood brother to the snake like chap a saint or something? I didn't particularly enjoy the series but as i have a bit of an OCD about these things i started it so i had to finish it. The thing is I'm getting a strange feeling that its all come to some bizarre end and that there wont be any more books? I could of sworn it wasn't finished and there was far more to come?

Does anyone else know please?

I was brought her latest book " Spirit Gate " as a present and wouldn't of bothered personally unless it was the next instalment of Crown of Stars. Its much the same thing and i really don't like her way of writing or style. But i must know what happened in the end with the Crown of Stars series!!!

Has it ended and i missed the last 20 chapters or something while i looked out the window at the paint drying on next doors fence in a bid for inspiration between pages? Or am i just well impatient but still irresistibly handsome?

Hmmm anyone?

But surely that makes it pointless? Perhaps i am good. Just good at being pointless. But that would make me bad. Bad at having a point. Ah…. I see now. I was nothing before, I am nothing now. I am bad purely because im pointless. "

Huh? The series is seven books long:

King's Dragon
Prince of Dogs
The Burning Stone
Child of Flame
The Gathering Storm
In the Ruins
Crown of Stars

They're all still in print in the UK and USA and freely available on Amazon.

The elven homeland returns at the conclusion to Book 5. The final resolution of Alain and Stronghand's story comes in Book 7.

Ooops:p

I've read King's Dragon, but I wasn't really a fan. Her battlescenes were atrocious:(

It seems you've missed In the Ruins and
Crown of Stars, which covers the landing and conclusion.
