Inca Kings

For more information on the future of the Matt Drake world and David Leadbeater’s novels please read on:

With Inca Kings I tried to create something different, an action/adventure novel steeped in archaeological mystery but with an in-your-face twist of horror. Not supernatural; I have gone to great pains to ensure the words and writing do not err to the magical side of things (and always have). I hope you agree.

I am currently looking hard at developing another story along the same lines of the Drake series, with brand new, very different but likeable characters. The Drake series is still wildly popular, but I thought another series, in the same vein but with very different perspectives, would help keep both fresh and preserve their longevity. If it goes ahead this series would start after the next Drake. If you have any thoughts on this idea, please get involved and drop me a line. It does help. Several passages, story threads and events in my novels have been suggested by readers in the past.

So, next up will be Drake 16— already underway and to be released early March 2017. I have an idea that Alicia 4 will also be released in 2017. No more Disavowed yet, but I am still hoping to finish the Chosen trilogy next year.
