The third book doesn't have a publication date or publicized cover art yet, but it does have a title! The Book of Life should be released in 2014 and I expect there to be a long queue for it at the library... Get your hold requests in early!
If you're like me, you don't like waiting around for the next book in the series to be published. I tend to stay away from active series or ones that are in their early stages because when I get wrapped up in a story and involved with the characters, I find having to wait for the next book to be really jarring. That being said, sometimes I (often accidentally) start a series (like I did with The Diviners by Libba Bray) and I can't help but wait on the edge of my seat for the next book. Such is also the case with A Discovery of Witches. If you're waiting too -- and from Deborah Harkness' website, it sounds like we've got a minimum of 6 months, but likely longer to wait -- maybe some of these books will get you through.
