Tad has last published the fourth and final book of THE LAST KING OF OSTEN ARD, The Navigator´s Children, in November of 2024. US and UK paperback editions are expected on August 5th, 2025.

The German translation will be published on October 18th, 2025 by Tad´s long-time German publisher Klett-Cotta. As with the previous three book in this series, it will be published in two volumes. The German title will be Die Kinder des Seefahrers. Check out the publisher’s pages here and here.

Tad and his wife Deborah Beale have also finished working on the third ORDINARY FARM novel, currently titled The Heirs of Ordinary Farm. There is no publication date for this book yet. Tad and Deborah are currently in the process of getting the rights to the first book in this series back, too, so all three books can once again be published. We will keep you updated.

Tad has also sold two new books to his US publishers. The first of the two books, which is his current project, is The Splintered Sun. Set in Williams’ beloved and well-known fantasy world of Osten Ard, this new novel follows the adventures of Robin Hood-esque figure Flann Alderwood and his band of misfit rebels in one of Osten Ard’s oldest and strangest cities, Crannhyr. He is already well into the first draft of the manuscript. Tad´s expects this book to be about as long as his last stand-alone The War of the Flowers. Publication will be most likely sometime in 2026, but no date has been set yet.
