Dear Dr. Vinge, Please tell us you are actively writing a sequel to "Children of the Sky". "Fire Upon the Deep" was outstanding and it is in my top 5 all time list of science fiction books. I know it took you 20 years to write the sequel to "Fire Upon the Deep". I can wait 20 more years for the third book in the trilogy, but I hope it comes a lot sooner.

There are some great hints and foreshadowing throughout Children of the Sky. I can't wait to read more about the Blight.

A few weeks ago I bought a hardcover edition of "Children of the Sky" in a grocery store for $4.95. I felt like I was stealing. I started reading it but after 4 pages decided that I first needed toread "Fire Upon the Deep" again (for the 4th time).

Sincerely,

Sean O'Brien
