Are There Any Sequels To Scythe & Sparrow?

I’d kill for a sequel to 'Scythe & Sparrow'—that book wrecked me in the best way. No official announcements yet, but the fandom’s convinced there’s more to the story. The author drops cryptic hints on social media, like doodles of sparrows or scythes in their sketchbooks, and we’re all collectively losing our minds over it. Until then, I’ve been filling the void with fanfiction and roleplay forums. There’s this one AO3 series that expands the lore with underground knife-fighting rings, and it’s shockingly well-researched.

Side note: If you loved the dual protagonists, check out 'Thorn & Ivy'. It’s got the same enemies-to-reluctant-allies vibe, though with more magic and less bloodshed. Honestly, half the fun is hunting down these spiritual successors while we wait for news.

The world of 'Scythe & Sparrow' is one I’ve revisited often, partly because its blend of gritty realism and poetic mysticism left such a vivid impression. While I haven’t stumbled across any direct sequels, the author’s other works—like 'Whisper of the Blade'—carry a similar thematic weight. They explore interconnected mythologies, almost as if they exist in the same universe. Fans of the original might find comfort in those threads, even if they don’t continue the exact story. I’ve lost hours digging through forums and author interviews, hoping for hints of a follow-up, but for now, it seems like a standalone gem. That said, the open-ended finale leaves room for imagination, and I’ve scribbled down plenty of my own theories.

If you’re craving more of that atmospheric tension, indie titles like 'The Hollow Crown' or 'Ash and Echo' might scratch the itch. They share that same lyrical brutality, though they’re not officially tied to 'Scythe & Sparrow'. Sometimes, the absence of sequels makes the original even more special—like a fleeting dream you can’t (and maybe shouldn’t) revisit.
