Nothing official so far. During a recent Q&A, he mentioned that it should be several months after the release of next short story collection. That is not definite or comes with a release date. But, it is what I know. Others may have more thorough intel.

George R. R. Martin kills of more Starks, Jim Butcher delays the release :D To each his own.

On the other hand, last book of the Song of Ice and Fire came out 2011 so we can't complain there.

From what I gathered, it got split into two books and only the first one is out so far. Funny, the only book I know with more sex in it than Martin's books is the Bible.

Oh, there are many that have plenty; but, the more you add the less interesting the story.

You've got that right. I mean, if I want to read about bed scenes, I'll go and buy some harlequin books...

I am sure there are some equally bad Dresden fan fictions out there.

Are you familiar with the term fujoshi? Now there's a source for some twisted fanfics, if I've ever seen one. There is one thing I never could understand: Why do so many female fans want to turn straight men into gay couples?

Also: Griffin wrote something nice and fairly readable. It's set in Dresdenverse, but it doesn't touch many original characters too deeply:

He does some interesting stuff, though some of it is quite dark, and that is not everyones cup of tea. I contributed one character for one of the books (Hell Bent).  ;)
