While Samuel was busy handling business, his presence in the entertainment sector was missed. Over the years, he had already finished the lord of the Rings books, which tied up the story neatly, along with his first book, Hobbit. The natural question arose: when would they see a full-length adaptation of his works?
He had left everything to Thomas, who was still working as the head of the publishing department. He was competent enough and had ensured the hype was still at its peak by teasing some cameos in games and movies.
There were also talks about Samuel writing another book; it was only fan speculation on online forums and fan groups. The main reason was that no one still knew the true face behind the author Abel. Samuel never bothered to announce it.
