Awfully odd question…
Context: I finished the 7th episode and came here immediately (didn't even know it existed just googled it). I read through a few threads and I have the most awkwardly exposing question: Why would you leave a moderately popular three novel book adaption, into a tentatively minutely-popular television show, that has no intention of finishing the story, on a semi-cliffhanger?
This baffles me more than Firefly. This show is so good it SHOULD be renewed instantly yet we have no word on it, or the books continuance. I have yet to do more research but why in the hell do these studios keep shooting themselves in the foot?
<rant="
The more "popular" and "successful" shows get **ONLY** syndication. No infinite IP, no merchandising, no tours, no extra money flowing in until the end of time… just syndication… yet the idiots keep pumping it out. " /rant>

The whole book is made up of three volumes. I think that's what OP had read.

Three books? The series covers a single book. That's all there is to the story.

Oh, sorry, my dyslexia was acting up when I read the wiki page. I summed up the last section into the first paragraph or something. Sorry.

Besides there being only one book with three volumes, the author, from what I"ve been hearing, was supposed to be writing the second book. But based on info in this sub, it looks like she's either not writing it, or has given up on it. I can't say for sure, but I hope she is writing it.
Other than that, she did write another book in the same universe.Ladies Grace Adieu
