Last year or earlier I read a book The Rise of Renegade X.

That book was much much MUCH better than it had any right to be, and now I amble over to the author's site to see about a sequel, and this is what she says:

"The slightly longer answer is that I’d be willing to write one, but book one has to sell more copies first. So your hopes may be dashed, but don’t lock them in a box and bury them just yet."

Do you read that? Read it again.

Now, the genre might not be your thing, but I'm sure you can think of somebody who'll like it. Please (really), buy yourself a copy (or somebody else a copy) so I can get my sequel.
