| Spoiler Alert: The following section contains spoilers about a book not yet released. |
Mastiff is the third and last volume in the Provost's Dog trilogy. It's publication date is set for 2010, although Tamora Pierce stated in December of 2009 that the novel will probably be realeased in spring or summer of 2011 at the latest and that Pierce was nearly finished writing it[1]. Originally the novel had been titled Elkhound, but Tamora Pierce decided that this choice of title didn't go along with the content anymore, because Elkhounds only tracked game and didn't bring it down like Mastiffs[2].
A Mastiff
Content

They will be sent out of Corus on a trail that appears and disappears, following a twisting road throughout Tortall.
