'The Safari Crew and their stories are coming to an end'

The Glenwood series has been a longstanding literary journey, originating from a short story set in the fictional city of Glenwood in 2003, and officially becoming a central storyline in 2005. Over the years, the series has expanded into hundreds of short stories and a dozen books, constructing an extensive universe known as the Glenwood franchise. In 2023, the Glenwood saga experienced a darker reboot, introducing new core characters and a revitalized narrative direction. These characters have since become the heart of the rebooted Glenwood universe, with their stories unfolding across various new books and short stories.

As the rebooted series has progressed, the central characters—now fully grown adults—find themselves yearning for a sense of normalcy and stability, expressing a desire to move beyond the chaos and heroics that have long defined their lives. The trilogy "Glenwood X: Vol 1-3" serves as a pivotal arc, culminating in the characters' journeys and providing closure to their epic adventures. However, before the Glenwood series draws to a close, one final installment remains: "The Glenwood Massacre," slated for release in Fall 2026. This book promises to reunite the core group, known as the safari crew, for their most perilous and consequential battle yet, bringing them together one last time to defend Glenwood.

"The Glenwood Massacre" is poised to be the concluding chapter of the main Glenwood series, marking the end of an era. The author intends to transition towards new settings and fresh characters within the broader Glenwood universe, aiming to expand the franchise’s lore and explore multi-genre possibilities.

The official timeline for the rebooted Glenwood books is as follows:

• Camp Glenwood

• Glenwood: Last Class (currently in development)

• Glenwood: In Too Deep (scheduled for Summer 2026)

• Glenwood X: Vol 1-3

• The Glenwood Massacre (expected Fall 2026)

• Glenwood Present: Koi (planned for 2027)

In summary, the Glenwood series has evolved from its humble beginnings into a sprawling, multi-layered narrative. The forthcoming conclusion with "The Glenwood Massacre" not only wraps up the journeys of beloved characters but also sets the stage for new stories and expansion within the Glenwood universe.
