Author Susanna Clarke agrees with you: "Jonathan Strange & Mr. Norrell," the miniseries based on her debut novel, did not offer sufficient resolution to the lives of its characters.

To that end, her second book, a short-story collection titled "The Ladies of Grace Adieu and Other Stories," picks up where the first left off. One story features a "fuller explanation" of events referred to in the novel (to quote the second book's fanciful introduction), and another features two of the central characters, Jonathan Strange himself as well as the mysterious Raven King.

But sadly, the seven episodes aired by BBC America in 2015 are it for TV adaptations. They covered, more or less, all the events in the novel. So barring a TV version of the short stories in her second book (a trickier proposition, as short stories don't generally do well as TV) we won't be seeing any more of those characters on screen.

That is unless Clarke writes a longer sequel. It's been 11 years since her second book was published, and at the time she was talking about writing another novel with the characters, but nothing's come yet.

In her defense, she became somewhat busy with working on the TV adaptation. In a column she wrote for the Guardian newspaper, she said that negotiations about an adaptation "stretch back years" from 2015, when it was finally released.

Writing from the film set while production was underway, she seemed pleased, though also bewildered, by the results. She described the set as "everything that pleases me best," but said that "nothing, I find, has prepared me for the sight of my own characters walking about."

You likely aren't the only one pining for more of the show, either. You can count the BBC itself in that camp -- the show was a hit and raked in multiple awards, including two BAFTAs (basically British Emmys).
