How Many Books Are There In the Crescent City Series?
The bestselling author was contracted to write three books, but expressed a fourth book was definitely in the works. During an exclusive conversation with The Today Show, Maas explained that it would be a bit of a wait before the fourth book is released due to her “taxiiing” line of books in the works — which also includes a sixth book in the ACOTR series that she’s currently writing.

Both of the books take place within the same universe, which means that fans of ACOTR can expect some Easter eggs within the Crescent City series. You’ll also find some references to key moments from ACOTR mentioned in the new series.
Do I Need To Read ACOTAR Before Crescent City?
