Oh, this takes me back! My dad had a VHS copy of 'The Wild Geese' that we’d rewatch endlessly. The sequel, 'Wild Geese II,' is a weird beast—it swaps African jungles for Cold War Berlin, and while it’s entertaining, it feels more like a cash grab than a true continuation. John Glen (yes, the Bond director) helmed it, so there’s some slick action, but the heart isn’t the same. There were rumors of a third film in the 90s, but it never materialized.
Interestingly, the original novel by Daniel Carney spawned a follow-up book, 'The Square Circle,' which some fans consider a thematic sequel. If you’re into novels, check out Carney’s 'The Thin White Line'—same mercenary energy, different story. For films, 'Who Dares Wins' (1982) scratches a similar itch with its SAS vs. terrorists plot. But yeah, 'Wild Geese II' is the only official sequel, and it’s... well, it exists.
Digging into mercenary movies always leads me back to 'The Wild Geese.' The sequel, 'Wild Geese II,' is a strange follow-up—shifted tone, new cast, and a plot that feels more like a spy thriller. It’s got its moments (Olivier as a Nazi is chilling), but it’s missing the original’s rough-edged magic. There’s also a 2004 TV movie called 'The Wild Geese: The Final Mission,' but it’s low-budget and barely connected. If you love the genre, try 'The dirty dozen' (1967) or 'Kelly’s Heroes' (1970) for that same mix of action and brotherhood. 'The Wild Geese' didn’t need sequels, though—it’s perfect as is.
I was just talking about this with a friend who's into classic war films! 'The Wild Geese' (1978) is such a gritty, star-studded adventure—Richard Burton, Roger Moore, and Richard Harris? Iconic. As far as I know, there's one official sequel, 'Wild Geese II' (1985), which follows a new mission to rescue Rudolf Hess from Spandau Prison. It's got a different vibe though, with Scott Glenn and Laurence Olivier joining the cast, but it lacks the original's raw charm. There's also a spiritual successor called 'The Sea Wolves' (1980), same producers and similar mercenary theme, but it’s not a direct sequel. Honestly, 'The Wild Geese' stands best as a standalone—sometimes sequels can’t capture that lightning in a bottle.
Fun tidbit: There’s a 2008 Japanese remake titled 'Yurusarezaru Mono,' but it’s a loose adaptation set in the Edo period. If you’re craving more mercenary action, I’d recommend 'The Dogs of War' (1980) or even the 'Expendables' series for that modern throwback feel. But nothing quite matches the original’s blend of camaraderie and chaos.

“Survive, and win what your heart desires most.”
With nothing left to lose, Aria enters a realm beyond her world, an ancient castle suspended between life and death, where each dawn brings a new trial of survival. Competitors vanish one by one, hunted by the magic that governs the Game.
But not everyone is what they seem. One contestant, a charming, infuriatingly optimistic wolf named Kael, seems more interested in keeping her alive than winning himself. His warmth disarms her, his smiles irritate her, and his secrets could destroy them both.
Now Aria must survive the trials, outsmart the goddess who created them, and decide what freedom truly means: breaking her bond to the mate who betrayed her, or risking everything for the wolf who was never supposed to love her.

I adore quirky indie titles like 'A Gaggle of Geese'—it’s such a hidden gem! From what I’ve gathered, there isn’t a direct sequel, but the creator did release a spiritual successor called 'A Parliament of Owls' last year. It carries the same whimsical art style and absurd humor, though the mechanics are more polished. I spent hours comparing the two, and while 'Owls' lacks the chaotic charm of 'Geese,' it’s got this cozy, puzzle-heavy vibe that’s perfect for rainy afternoons.
Rumor has it the original dev team split, so future projects might be up in the air. Still, I’d kill for a DLC expanding the goose lore—maybe something like 'A Murder of Crows'? The fanbase’s Discord is full of wild theories, and honestly, half the fun is speculating.
The Black Feathers' has always held a special place in my heart—it's one of those rare books that lingers in your mind long after you finish it. From what I've gathered, there isn't a direct sequel, but the author did release a companion novel called 'Whispers of the Crow' that explores some of the same themes and even revisits a few characters in a different setting. It's not a continuation per se, but if you loved the gothic atmosphere and intricate symbolism of 'The Black Feathers,' you'll likely enjoy this too. I stumbled upon it by accident last year and ended up devouring it in one sitting—it scratched that itch for more of the same eerie, poetic storytelling.
Rumors have floated around about a potential anthology or spin-off series, but nothing's been confirmed yet. The author's blog occasionally drops cryptic hints, so I keep an eye out. In the meantime, I'd recommend diving into 'The Raven’s Quill' by another writer—it has a similar vibe with its lush descriptions and morally ambiguous protagonists. Sometimes, the absence of a sequel makes the original even more precious, like a single perfect feather preserved in glass.
