Editing Gormenghast (series) (section)

==Works==
The series consists of three books: ''[[Titus Groan]]'' (1946), ''[[Gormenghast (novel)|Gormenghast]]'' (1950) and ''[[Titus Alone]]'' (1959). A short book, ''[[Boy in Darkness]]'' (1956), tells the story of a brief adventure by the young Titus away from Gormenghast, although it does not name the castle.

Peake had intended to write a series of books following Titus Groan through his life, as well as detailing his relationship with Gormenghast. At least two other books, tentatively titled ''[[Titus Awakes]]'' and ''Gormenghast Revisited'', were planned but [[Parkinson's disease]] and Peake's ensuing death at the age of 57 prevented him from writing more than a few hundred words and ideas for further volumes. Only three pages of ''Titus Awakes'' were coherently written and can be found in the Overlook Press edition of ''Titus Alone'' ({{ISBN|0-87951-427-2}}) and in the omnibus volume ({{ISBN|0-87951-628-3}}).

In the 1970s, Peake's widow [[Maeve Gilmore]] wrote her version of ''Titus Awakes'', which she called ''Search Without End''. The Peake family announced the discovery of this book in 2010, and it was published by [[The Overlook Press]] as ''Titus Awakes: The Lost Book of Gormenghast'' in 2011 to coincide with the 100th anniversary of Peake's birth.<ref>{{cite web|url=https://www.theguardian.com/theguardian/2010/jan/18/shortcuts-fourth-gormenghast-novel-discovered|title=Titus Groan rises again!|first=Sebastian|last=Peake|date=17 January 2010|access-date=5 April 2017|work=The Guardian}}</ref>
